    Fantastic place at, literally, the end of the road! Nice garden with live music in the evening. Many locals came for the music and to eat. Spacious room with high ceilings and sky light. Breakfast in the old dining room with chateau feeling.

    The room was very large and comfortable. The breakfast was simple, but of very good quality and enjoyable. Plenty of coffee available and fresh orange juice. The location was fantastic if you just want to get away from it all. We ate in the garden...

Company information

If we have the taste for contacts and meetings, we are also winemakers engaged in a viticulture that makes sense, Organic and Bio-dynamically. We settled in 2006 after a long stay in Asia. A magical place that seduced us, by its environment (the Dordogne), the architecture (the Chapel) and the quality of the terroir (for the quality of the wines).
