The estate from the air: the stone and tile building by the pond, its fountain, the meadow

Once a fish farm and a bar

The Aux Étangs story began forty years ago with the opening of a restaurant. Back then it served a short menu for just sixteen covers.

Today the restaurant offers refined, contemporary cooking, with a light-filled veranda and a terrace in the shade of the plane trees.

And for an unusual arrival: you can land by helicopter on the estate. They also arrange various helicopter activities.

Two minutes on the estate

The ponds from the air, the veranda, the kitchen, the bar and the rooms. The film they shot at home.

The estate from the air: the pond, the buildings, and the landing pad marked with an H on the meadow
The veranda laid for service, its wooden beams and windows open on the trees

The veranda, the chef's kitchen, five terraces

Enjoy the light during a daytime meal, and the fine mirror effect the veranda creates in the evening. In the kitchen, the chef and his brigade sign a seasonal menu.
