You have to have a car for this....but trust me it is well worth it. West of Lyon is Charolles and very close is St. julien de Civry. The Chateau Vaulx is there . What a great place to stay for a day or two...or maybe forever. Check it out on the web. Www.chateauvaulx.com. Marty, one of the owners will cook for you. There is no better host in all of France in my opinion.Check out TA reviews. In this case they are all true.

Here's another option for you if you want to 'faire la larve', not too far from Lyon;

Beautiful setting, good accommodation, very good restaurant and 45 minutes from Lyon if you fancy a proper night out. Have to say I'm a bit biased as I rented the whole place a few years back as my wedding venue.
It's not perfect, but I think for what you've got in mind, it certainly fits the bill...
