Plan your visit to the Restaurant Michel Guérard

In 1975, Michel Guérard laid down the principles of dietetic cuisine without sacrificing culinary pleasure, his Grande Cuisine Minceur. Light, Naughty, Vegetarian, Virtuous and quite simply Delicious, the same cuisine is still being developed in Eugénie, where guests cannot wait to indulge in an exciting menu, including gourmet dessert for under 600 calories. For those who want to learn how to recreate this exceptional cuisine, the Institut Michel Guérard cookery school within the estate holds classes and courses throughout the year.

Health at the end of your fork

Seven kilometres from Eugénie, the former 17th century barony Château de Bachen is home to the Guérard family and the vineyard where Michel Guérard has been making his distinctive wines for 35 years. The vineyard is open to oenophiles by appointment for private guided tours with our oenologist, followed by a tasting of the latest vintages.

Rendezvous at the winery

It is a great privilege and a real luxury to be able to live and work in the countryside. I am often amazed by the nature that I breathe. Nature that gently guides me towards writing recipes that celebrate it in its most perfect, virtuous and authentic form.

Restaurant Michel Guérard

Designed as a luminous winter garden, the Orangerie restaurant has a green terrace that opens out generously onto the Eugénie gardens and the elegant baroque fountain. Its seasonal menu, rich in nuances, will take you on a journey between chic local cuisine – great classics of the House and exceptional products simply grilled over the embers in the fireplace – and another of plant inspiration including cereals, vegetables and herbs from the garden. Food lovers will be delighted by the magical large trolley of old-fashioned desserts.

L'Orangerie

"With golden suckling pigs, great lacquered chickens and tasty beef slowly roasting In the immense Raguenaud hearth, the smell attracted guests as excitable as children".

Spa La Ferme Thermale

"We imagine luxury as a sustainable, responsible and harmonious practice, for everyone." 
 
At Les Prés d'Eugénie, ethical luxury is practiced in a collaborative way: an implicit "contract" between the Guérard family and its guests, employees and suppliers. Promoting short food supply chains, local savoir-faire, anti-waste initiatives, social and environmental responsibility and biodiversity protection translates to several dozen concrete actions that take place across all teams ⁠— from the garden to the suites, human resources to the kitchen oven. This is the property's manifesto for “Authentic and Responsible Luxury.” According to Adeline and Eléonore, “small streams make great rivers! and everyone here is doing their part, modestly, but with determination.”
