En route from Brittany to Bilbao, we drove more than an hour out of our way to hopefully get the true French experience. We were successful! This hotel is not about a great room, it is about the total visit - the ride through the Bordeaux wine region, followed by a climb into the hills of the Dordogne set the tone. Arriving in the small town of Manzac Sur Vern, we parked in front of the ubiquitous WW I memorial, and checked into the old hotel. Our room was not large, but clean , with a decent bathroom. We reserved a table in the hotel's restaurant and relaxed for a few hours. Dinner was great - we were served by the sister of the owner/chef, and had a classic meal, with a very good local Bergerac red wine. This hotel is on a "Foie gras route", and deservedly so. If you love old France, it is worth the trip!

Stopped one night on a cycle tour. Clean, comfortable room. No frills but slept very well. Restaurant on first impression seemed rather formal and old fashioned but the food was of excellent quality and beautifully presented and the staff were friendly and attentive. The open air cinema gave the sleepy village a strange cartoon soundtrack but both cinema and church bells went silent at bedtime!
