Burgundy (Bourgogne) is found in the center of France, just north-east of the geographical center and south east of Paris. Historically, and still now, it is one of the richer parts of France, and has been since hundreds of years ago, when the Burgundians sided with the English during the Hundred Years War. Dijon is the capital of the region...see Burgundy travel guide before choosing a gite or holiday rental in Burgundy.

What to expect from a Burgundy gite holiday?  Burgundy (French: Bourgogne; German: Burgund) is a historic region of France, inhabited in turn by Celts (Gauls), Romans (Gallo-Romans), and various Germanic peoples, most importantly the Burgundians and the Franks; the former gave their name to the region.

Later in time, the region was divided between the Duchy of Burgundy (west of Burgundy) and the County of Burgundy (east of Burgundy). The Duchy of Burgundy is the more famous of the two, and the one which reached historical fame. Later, the Duchy of Burgundy became the French province of Burgundy, while the County of Burgundy became the French province of Franche-Comté (literally meaning "free county"). The modern-day administrative région of Bourgogne comprises most of the former Duchy of Burgundy. (Wikipedia)
