Auberge des Templiers
Restaurant of a Grand Chef Relais & Châteaux and hotel in the country (Boismorand) Back in 1954 the Dépée family turned this former post house into one of the first Relais & Châteaux properties. Charming and tranquil, this top culinary destination is surrounded by Loire châteaux and the vineyards of Sancerre and Pouilly. Experience the rare pleasure of sleeping under a thatched roof, and allow yourself to be seduced by the cuisine of Grand Chef Yoshi Miura in the restaurant, looking out on century-old oak trees. On the menu is a magical ravioli of wild mushrooms and velouté with a truffle jus, and John Dory in a La Ratte potato crust and sweet red onion sauce. This delicious food is complemented by wine from the highly acclaimed cellar.

Sample tartare of langoustines with citrus fruit aromas and don’t resist a glass of champagne.

Château de Courcelles
Hotel and restaurant in the country (Courcelles-sur-Vesle) Legend has it that Jean Cocteau designed this castle’s staircase... Regardless of whether it is true, this rumour speaks volumes about the attention to detail in this palace where Jean-Jacques Rousseau once liked to stroll in the French garden and French literary figures Racine, La Fontaine and Dumas stayed. Which now famous pages did they write here? This can be contemplated while strolling through the magnificent grounds, swimming in the pool, playing a round of golf, or a game of tennis, and dining like royalty, discovering the best local products and excellent wines.
Auberge du Jeu de Paume
Hotel and restaurant in a park (Chantilly) The Auberge, nestled in the Domaine de Chantilly, between the Château Gardens and the Grandes Écuries, takes its name from what was the Jeu de Paume, which now displays the monumental paintings from the Condé Museum. As you enter through the Saint-Denis Gate, the long white façade of the Auberge stretches out before your eyes. Its sober lines and elegant appointments, designed by Le Nôtre and Mansart, echo a very particular French-style art de vivre.
Its restaurant, La Table du Connétable, with studio windows overlooking the kitchens, serves inventive traditional cuisine, and the libraries and the open fire in the Winter Garden Bar create a truly warm and welcoming atmosphere. The spa’s subtle lighting and coloured mosaics add the finishing touches to this perfect hideaway, just a few kilometres from Paris.
