Live the French Dream

Nicole and Pierre Balvay welcome you to their restored 14th century château, nestled amongst the vines and sunflower fields of Burgundy, for a taste of the real France.

A holiday at Château de Balleure is like no other. With a specially designed French language and cultural course created just for you. You will experience day-to-day French life and customs, learn the language, and make friends you'll keep forever.

Living with Pierre and Nicole, your visit to France will give you more than any package holiday could as you'll take away a deep understanding of this country's culture and history.

Courses can also be developed for business and professional purposes.
