Your house in Chablis

Rose, up to five guests

Lyla, for two

Iris, coming soon

Maisons Vaudésir is a small collection of restored village houses, each let to a single party at a time. The boulangerie is a few minutes away on foot, and the Grand Cru paths begin close to home.

Inside, Burgundian character meets the details that make a stay feel easy: Kipli beds, kitchens equipped for unhurried meals, Netflix and fibre Wi‑Fi in both houses, and a courtyard or riverside patio for when the day slows down.

The Houses

Rose and Lyla, beside the River Serein

Why Chablis

The village outside your door

A Chablis street beside the Serein, with the Simonnet-Febvre estate and vineyard slopes beyond

Chablis is a small wine village in northern Burgundy: 2,500 residents, medieval streets, and Kimmeridgian limestone beneath the vines. From either house, the boulangerie is two minutes away and the Grand Cru slopes are within walking distance.

Through the old streets

Village scale

Three boulangeries, eleven restaurants, three cafés, and more than twenty wine estates, all within five minutes on foot of either house.

Shops with a long memory

Wine merchants, an épicerie fine, and Maison Soulié, making andouillette here since 1886. Pick up a bottle and something for the table on the walk home.

Wine country

Chablis makes some of the most distinctive Chardonnay in the world. Domaines pour tastings in cellars that, in places, date to the twelfth century, and the vineyard paths begin minutes from the house.

Slow rhythm

The Sunday market, a wedge of cheese for lunch, an afternoon in a cellar, and a walk along the Serein before dinner. The days settle into the pace of the village.

A few days without a fixed plan. Croissants while the village wakes, a slow loop through cellars and vineyard paths, then back to the house for a glass of Chablis, a record, or one more episode. Rose and Lyla sit just off the centre, on the quiet quay beside the Serein.

Plan your days

Village rhythms and the week ahead

Our journal gathers what guests actually do in Chablis: market Sundays, walks along the Serein, and slow afternoons that rarely need a car.

In their own words

Read all guest stories
  • We came for a weekend and wished we had booked the whole week. The house is even more beautiful than the photos, every detail has been considered. The hot tub under the stars was unforgettable, and the location is perfect: quiet, but steps from everything.

    Sophie & LaurentParis, France
  • Maisons Vaudésir is the kind of place that changes the way you think about travel. We slowed down completely, morning walks in the vineyards, long lunches, evenings in the courtyard. The hosts recommended incredible wineries and restaurants. We will be back.

    James & EmilyLondon, UK
  • I have stayed in luxury hotels around the world, and this small house in Chablis surpassed them all. Not because of opulence, but because of thoughtfulness. Every detail, from the linens to the kitchen equipment to the curated wine suggestions, showed genuine care. An extraordinary find.
