Can anyone recommend a quaint B&B or a small, family-owned hotel around the area of Lyon, France?
I'm not sure how far from Lyon you're looking at. Domaine Guillard, a Beaujolais producer in St. Laurent d'Oingt, about 40 minutes from Lyon, is also a chambre d'hote with a few rooms. We stayed there in March and loved it. Link is:

I was thinking of something closer to, or even in Lyon, but if it is near the route, it would be convenient, too. I will look into it. Thank you for the info Robert.
