Flights.

Flights take just over 1 hr from London Stanstead to Lyon airport and are very reasonably priced. Air France and Easyjet both fly to this destination. Car hire is available from Holiday Autos. Lyon airport is around a 2 hour drive from the lakes.

Eurostar.

The rail service is very good, and very well priced, but it will not save you much time compared to driving down yourself. Eurostar, run from London to Dijon, via Lille without changing trains, or via Paris, but with changes made via the Paris metro.

Dijon station is 20 minutes drive from the lakes.
