Christophe, we had an amazing time at your chateau for our family reunion. My grandchildren did not want to leave. Thank you for all your recommendations of places to go and visit, and your wine tasting was perfect for the adults.
Merci beaucoup.

Absolutely wonderful and an amazing experience! Christophe and his family are great to work with and the communication was impeccable. I highly recommend staying here. Each room is uniquely beautiful and the area is gorgeous. My entire family loved our week and didn’t want to leave. We also hired Chef Agnes four of our nights and was delicious. Book this trip of a lifetime!!

We had the most amazing week at the Chateau, the pool, the poker room, the table tennis, & pétanque were all very well used & appreciated. We had an amazing meal cooked by Chef Agnes which was spectacular. The chateau & the grounds were the perfect location for our family celebration. We hope to return!

Château de Montrevost
A magnificent home away from home. Brilliantly modernized retaining old world charm. Amazing kitchen, spa and work out room, heated and covered pool etc, ping pond, mini golf, bicycles, etc.
The best part is the proprietor who is there for any need immediately.
A dream of a vacation!

Dear Christophe,
A week at your Château was life changing ! You have created a magical place - a haven from the madness of the world.
Thank you.
David Bell — Chicago, USA
Château de Montrevost
The Chateau exceeded our expectations. It was wonderful to spend a week in the sunshine living like royalty! The kitchen had pretty much everything we needed, and we were able to cook some marvelous food.
Late nights in the card room and playing pool. The mini golf was very challenging I took 23 shots on one of the holes. We never got the opportunity to eat in the dining room as the weather was so lovely. In fact, I am not sure I got to see most of the Chateau! We are already thinking of a return visit in the next couple of years although it may be Chateau de Burnard next time.

Château de Burnand
Dear Sylvia, Christophe and Family,
We had a very warm welcome and enjoyed very much the history and explanations of the castle. It is very luxurious and has a very well equiped kitchen. Everything you could think of was available. The château is very well restored. We had a wonderful week here with our family of 7/8. The estate has it's own trails to walk and it was very quiet / restful. You could only hear the birds and bees. Thank you very much we could enjoy your château and in the future we hope to come back here or at one of the other châteaux.
Many thanks.

Dear Christophe, we have had a fabulous holiday in your incredible château. All family members from 3 generations have loved every minute. This place is truly special and has created many special memories. The facilities are superb. The pool, poker room, and pool room were particularly well used by all ages. It was our pleasure to stay here and we hope to return some day. Thanks for your time at the wine tasting; your wine collection is amazing and all 8 of us thoroughly enjoyed your educational chat. Thank you from all of us.

The Chateau de Burnand is magnificent! The views are spectacular — rolling hills and gorgeous scenery. There are hiking trails all around the chateau just steps from the chateau. The swimming pool is a great place to relax and enjoy the views … This place is magical…

Thank you for a fantastic week in this wonderful castle. Everyone has enjoyed the stay and all the facilities in this beautiful place. We have prepared our meals in the large kitchen, and we were able to eat outside under the big tree by the pool.
We will surely recommend this place to everyone.

Château de Montrevost
Quel privilège d’avoir pu inaugurer ce superbe domaine. Un accueil chaleureux qui nous permet de prendre facilement « possession » des lieux. Une parenthèse hors du temps fortement appréciée de 11 à 79 ans. La piscine couverte un vrai +, le billard une splendeur ! Côté commerces, fromagerie et poissonnerie sur le marché le mardi sont super, les commerçants du village sympathiques. A Tournus le verger de l’abbaye a fait notre délice.
Il va nous falloir revenir pour découvrir les autres demeures…
Pascal & Samuel Amiet — Paris, France
Château de Burnand
This was out third stay at a Kasteliades property and every one of them have exceeded expectations. Chateau du Burnand … with the lovely village of Saint-Gengoux-le -National nearby, and several hiking paths (a church from 1031? Just down the hill from the chateau) accessible from the house and all of its amenities, you should be in no hurry to leave … Christophe and Sylvia have once again done a masterful job with the restoration and outfitted the chateau well with aesthetically pleasing decor that befits the grand canvas of the home. As always, they were unfailingly pleasant, responsive and communicative throughout our stay. We’ll be back!

Kind regards,
