FOR GASTRONOMY Beaune
What to see and do Set among the world’s most prestigious vineyards, the Roman city of Beaune (right) is a fine food hotspot, with a superb Saturday market. Visit the medieval hospital at the Hôtel Dieu, then shop ’til you drop. Call into the kitchen and wine shop, The Cook’s Atelier, thecooksatelier.com, a sublime space with copper cookware and expertly chosen wines; cookery classes take place upstairs. Elsewhere, the mustard museum and boutique, La Moutarderie Fallot, fallot.com, is charming. Where to eat The Caveau des Arches, caveau-des-arches.com, is set in a former 15th-century wine cellar and serves excellent regional classics. Where to stay Drink in the serenity at the Abbaye de la Bussière, abbayedelabussiere.fr, a luxury hotel 30 minutes from Beaune.
