Nearly booked here in 2016 just after it had opened so good to finally get there in 2022. Firstly location is perfect if you are traversing France. It's just far enough off the motorway but not too far which is important if you've been all day on the road. On arrival you will be pretty confident you've done the right thing. This place was purpose built and run by the husband/wife team so is as tight a ship as it could possibly be. All details in perfect order. Room big, clean, well equipped and good for sleep, no light intrusion with curtains drawn. We had requested food and that was provided but it's worth being aware of a few things if you need food too; We didn't have any idea what food we were getting so if you are fussy eater beware. Yves is a top chef, no doubt, but the food is very French in style and with zero choice, it may possibly not be to the fancy of some (and if you don't like it you are a bit stuck). We were also served wine but do not drink, easily sorted but shame to waste it once poured. The other thing to consider is that we'd been travelling all day and were placed between two other couples, one German, one French. With COVID on the rise, being so close with no choice is not ideal (I probably had COVID from the UK at the time with no symptoms until a few days later when I was very ill). We arrived quite late too so having to be sociable in 3 different languages, deal with great food but not food we'd ordered after a hard day on the road could be tough for some. As it happened it worked out OK because everything else was perfect including sleep quality! Breakfast was more laid back and very enjoyable. Refine the food bit for bleary eyed, fussy, anti-social, tea-total English and it will be perfection!
