On the edge of the Parc des Sources in Vichy, Grand Chef Jacques Decoret and his wife Martine have taken over a brick chalet dating from the time of Napoleon III. The chalet has a delightful conservatory and a planted roof. With its gentle, spacious guest rooms and kitchen with large picture windows, it blends contemporary and classical style, just like the chef himself. Decoret has created a new art de vivre in a historical thermal spa town. He favours fine produce, to which he applies his innovative skills, concocting combinations of hitherto unsuspected flavours. Gourmets can also sign up to introductory cookery classes.
