Château De Gilly

Summary

Château de Gilly was the residence of Cistercian monks between the 13th and 17th Centuries. The cuisine and the wines (with a 15,000 bottle cellar) are a gastronomic experience never to be forgotten – a worthy tribute to the Burgundian culture.

Château de Gilly stands in grandeur in the heart of Burgundy’s Grands Crus. Its history and presence are the very essence of the region. The château’s 14th-century Cistercian origins contrast with the ornamental style of the 17th Century, creating a palatial moated residence standing in formal gardens.

The estate comprises several historic buildings, including the stone-vaulted cellar, now the restaurant, and linked by a tunnel to the château. The guest rooms are decorative with detailed woodwork, fireplaces and French ceilings.
