Tourism and Gastronomy in Ain, Le Bois d'Alice

In Bresse Savoyarde, within the Ain department, near Vonnas and Châtillon-sur-Chalaronne, the village of Chanoz-Châtenay is framed by Mâcon to the west and Bourg-en-Bresse to the east. To the south, the nearby Dombes unfolds its myriad ponds, a water-dotted landscape flowing gently down to Lyon, about sixty kilometers away. From rolling meadows to traditional farms with Saracen chimneys, from winding rivers to historic mills, this authentic Bresse region is as simple as its honest folk—naturally beautiful.

Thanks to its prime location, our Bed and Breakfast is the perfect starting point for exploring Bresse: cycling through the pastures, discovering local craftsmanship, and immersing yourself in the region’s pristine natural sites.

Completely surrounded by forests, with tranquil water features and wooded groves, this former hunting ground now offers two courses—a challenging 18-hole and a shorter 6-hole course—ideal for unwinding during a relaxing stay in Bresse.
