Les Contes de Bruyeres

This was a delightful hotel. We stayed for three nights while visiting family nearby and were very happy with our choice. The room was spacious, clean and very comfortably and stylishly decorated hardly surprising given that the furniture came straight from the Ritz Carlton...in Paris thanks to the owner, Martina’s connections. The welcome was equally comfortable: friendly while observing all the COVID rules. We only ate once alas but nibbled a few times around a nightcap. The food was good and broke away well from the norm of French country hotel fare. Happily recommend this hotel to passing travellers and even for a longer stay. I think a week there, while exploring the region, would be much more comfortable and varied than the average AirBnB or gite, with the added bonus of a warm welcome and good cooking!

Of us visited for Sunday lunch. Everything was amazing! We started with homemade soup and warm bread. Full of flavour. We then moved into appetiser plates, one consisted of buffalo mozzarella and ham, whilst the other was duck terrine with cucumber. Absolutely divine....The most important part of course was the main, which was incredible. We had plates of entrecôte, one cooked more to the rare side and the other more to medium. Outstanding steak, cooked to perfection and rich in flavour. Served with potatoes and green beans, with a tomato and red pepper sauce. To finish off, we were served a most impressive chocolate mousse. I’m lost for words to describe it, I can safely say it will be the best mousse you’ll ever try. Our experience was only complimented by the outstanding service from Matthias and Martina, incredible hosts who made us feel so welcome and at home. Would definitely recommend and can not thank Martina and Matthias enough for the experience! We will be back!

On recommendation of the previous residents of our little home, we ate here. In a delicious unforgiving atmosphere, martina and her husband know to read your most elaborate dishes, guided by excellent wines. Martina's a famous (Door closes) TV cook and an international master chief, and you're testing it in all her dishes. You want to eat out of art once, then make a day out of it. A reservation and let martina go completely loose. Do it!

Enjoyed A lovely dinner prepared by a charming host. We certainly will come back to enjoy this once more. If you are in the area, Please stop to visit them!

The dishes well prepared but martina should be more particularly concerned about the cooking point in the kitchen. otherwise is worth the detour and the owners are charming
