Breakfast is taken (weather permitting) outside, to allow our guests to enjoy the morning sunshine.

We provide a continental breakfast, with the addition of eggs fresh from our hens (in season), and homemade jams, as well as yogurt and cereals.

Breakfast is normally served between 8:30 - 10:30, but for early departures we will always try to accommodate an earlier start.

The Limousin region is well known for its culinary produce and we seek to use only the very best local ingredients, and, where possible, produce from our own kitchen garden.

The lamb and beef (famously fed on both grass and herbs) as well as the duck and pork are legendary. We also benefit from fantastic chestnuts, fruit, cèpes and many other delicacies.

On warm evenings dinner is best enjoyed outside, however in cooler weather, you can relax in the elegance of our dining room.

Table d’hôtes is a traditional service, where food is only served to guests. You eat at the table of your hosts.  It is a set menu, and changes every day.We think this allows us to offer the highest standards of fresh food in a lovely intimate relaxed atmosphere. Guests are able to arrange for meals in advance, when they book their rooms, or alternatively, we ask that you notify us on the morning of the day before you wish to have dinner (please see the Tariff page).

We have a selection of house wines and Patrick chooses the appropriate wine for the menu each evening. If you would like a different wine, then you are free to order the wine of your choice, at the price listed on our wine list.

Please let us know in advance if you are a vegetarian/vegan or have any food allergies have any particular dietary requirements, or if there is something special you would like.

We serve children’s dinner early at around 6.00, so that all the children can eat together (supervised by parents). Children’s dinner is charged at €10 per child (no charge for babies). This allows parents time to put younger children to bed before their dinner. Generally, children up to about 15 years old eat at this time. We are able to provide baby food if required. Children eating with the adults are charged at €25, and are prohibited from drinking wine alcoholic drinks.

Drinks are served at around 8.30.  Every evening there is also an aperitif of the day (at a nominal charge of €4) so that guests can try different regional drinks – many aperitifs are still handmade in Limoges using traditional methods. Dinner then follows, usually at 9.00.  The meal is an opportunity for socialising and enjoying the company of other guests.

Please note that we do not serve dinner on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. We are happy to recommend restaurants and make reservations if you wish.
