Burgundy is an unspoilt gem in the centre of France, but often a place that visitors speed through on their way to the Alps or the south – a treasure overlooked.
It is a region of kingdoms and duchies awash with history, stretching 100 miles southeast of Paris as far as Macon and covering some of the greatest wine growing areas in the world.
It is also highly regarded for its gastronomic prowess having the highest concentration of Michelin starred restaurants in the world.
