A graceful country Estate, romantic haven for the senses,

where body and soul are pampered.

Th is Family Mansion invites you to happiness.

In this aristocratic dwelling, the Cuisine is a symphony of savours,

where a talented quarto created a loving melody,

amidst enchanted herb gardens and ancient roses,

opening the way to a dreamy spa.

Michel Guérard composes the most delectable morsels,

whilst Christine and her daughters instill a sense of beauty and poetry.

les Prés d’Eugénie

THE LODGINGS

les Prés d’Eugénie

A sumptuous echo of bygone India.

Flirting gently with the soaring plane trees

and the luscious leaves of banana, orange and palm trees…

Sunbeams tease the delicate arches of a Persian Poet.

Luminous rooms and suites to muse in.

A delicious, appetizing breakfast is served in your room.

From the terraces and balconies you can admire

the Estate’s rose and water gardens.

A stone’s throw from the Main House,

a pastoral hideaway by the herb garden.

Just the spot for a romance.

Tenderly sheltered by ancient cedars,

Queen Christine’s Petit Trianon is bathed

in the scent of roses, melissa and lemon verbena.

Pale fruitwood, fl oor tiles polished with age,

windows draped with embroidered linen…

Th e sweet silence of peace…

le Couvent des Herbes

l’ Impératrice

Th e gentle whisper of rustling silk.

A satiny light fondles the antique wood panelling,

the charm and grace of the Empress still fl oat in the air.

Josephine and Eugénie both left their spirit here

to enthrall you. Enjoy the serene beauty of royal suites,

then you can slip unobserved into the Loulou’s Lounges.

THE LODGINGS

La Maison Rose off ers rooms and apartments

with simple but chic interior decoration,

reminiscent of an English cottage.

In the sunny yellow of La Maison Rose

restful sofas, cosy duvets, soft golden light

streaming into the country guesthouse.

Th e warm, friendly service ensures guests a pleasurable stay.

THE LODGINGS

la Maison Rose

Canopy beds and hollyhocks, jolly childhood memories

are the mood music for the Logis des Grives.

An exquisite shelter where country style perfectly blends

with more sophisticated refi nements.

les Logis des Grives

Th e air is mild and lilting,

handsome beamed ceilings,

deep wing-armchairs. Spacious apartments :

a perfect setting for your own fairytale.

At the end of a forest track,

where the ocean merges with the sky,

a mysterious timber hunting lodge

in the wilderness.

Dunes, pine forest, soft water stream,

endless shores, powerful waves.

Foam and sun,

Robinson Crusoe would have loved this untamed land cresting the West Wind.

THE LODGINGS

les Maisons Marines d’Huchet

TWO LODGESNaïve and enchanting, where Nature rules,

the light, a faithful friend,

the breeze, a constant companion.

Cheerful, Sparkling, Bounteous,

Serene, Smooth, Sophisticated

Irreverence, curiosity, poetry.

la Grande Cuisine Minceur

THE CUISINES

In the giant hearth that would have endeared Falstaff , golden suckling pigs,

glazed chickens and tasty purebred beef gently roast.

No need to be a wise grown-up to wield your silver spoon

and tuck into delicious Pain Perdu, buttery tarts and Chocolat en Tasse…

You will even be licking your fi ngers !
