The place is great for both the young and old with plenty of seating areas, inside and out, and plenty of cover outside to protect you from the summer sun. Inside the bar you have a number of TVs to watch the sport (which is always a great occassion when France are playing, especially Rugby and Football). There is an electronic darts board and a pool table and the place is very child friendly. The Bar staff speak both French and English (and no doubt a number of other languages) so no reason to feel shy about going in if you don't speak the local lingo. The place has recently started to do food. I have not eaten here but those I know who have have said that it is very good pub food. The beer is varied and very tasty although a little bit pricey!, although in true French fashion you can opt for a tea or coffee. A great little spot to meet up and enjoy a beer (or three!!)

We went there…read moreseveral times in groups of varying size for a coffee or lunch time beer and the service was a bit hit or miss as they often didn't seem to have enough staff on to cope with the two terraces that they were trying to serve. Market day was particularly bad. Aside from that we went late one Saturday night and had a great meal from their small selection of typical brasserie meals which were really well priced and great value for money. It was also great to soak in the local atmosphere as the bar was really busy with lots of people having a good time including about a dozen members of staff perhaps they should put them on the early shift! A special mention for the frites which were outstanding.

We snatched a table close to the Watermill. Our plan was to start with some cocktails and possibly have dinner after. 3 ordered Champagne and I ordered a Champagne cocktail. Comprised of Cognac, Cointreau, Angostura Bitters & Champagne. Something different, refreshing and delicious! The Champagne was enjoyed also. Great atmosphere and vibe for a cocktail. Watching the flow of the lazy river and enjoying beautiful Brantome. Our server started out strong but somehow disappeared after bringing us our drinks which was a disappointment. We ended up paying in front at reception which is the normal process. Our server did thank and acknowledge us as we were leaving so semi recovery. We inquired about dinner but they were booked. Looked like it could be good. So reservations are recommended for dinner. Great spot for a drink with a view!

It's part of our universal travel routine to tell each other, you MUST eat here or visit there if you are travelling to a place I've been. I've gotten some great recommendations that way; other times, it would be impossible and improbable to build one's itinerary around other's experiences. But really, this place is fantastic. I have stayed in many places that aim to imitate a chateaux, inside or outside, and the truth is, before arrival, we wondered if we would be checking in to Fawlty Towers (also because it wasn't expensive at all). But no, this is the real deal. The building is absolutely stunning. The rooms, renovated only a handful of years ago, before Yves and Catherine opened their doors to the public, are perfect, retaining old-world charm but matched with contemporary comfort. The tall ceilings, magnificent room and buildings made me feel like we were in an episode of Downton Abbey. After staying in a series of AirBNB rentals, this bed was the comfort we needed on the trip! Also, there's a rain showerhead. Air conditioning. A lovely view from the room. It doesn't stop there. The gastronomic restaurants has some sort of recognition or certification of fine dining. With beautiful weather, we all sat outside under a well-designed pergola and while we have eaten some amazing meals this trip in France, we think this dinner was the best so far. Traditional but not boring, each element on the plate thought-out and delicious, and a celebration of local ingredients (which the French seem to have been doing for centuries, but is called a "trend" elsewhere). My appetiser was dried duck stuffed with foie gras, a handful of thin slices of it, with a few slices of dried duck breast without the foie gras, and a nice berry gel. My main was sturgeon, cooked perfectly with an intense buttery herb sauce, and tiny new potatoes that burst upon being bit into. My partner thought his duck confit was the best he'd ever tasted. I loved my selection of local cheeses and his dessert, an apricot and rhubarb stew with a pannacotta was delicious. All accompanied by an interesting glass of white wine as an aperitif (sweet for him, dry for me) and a bottle of local white wine with the dinner (I'll never remember the names of so many French wines, but this was a sauvignon blanc with enough texture and body to match both the fish and the duck). All of this was at incredibly reasonable prices. Breakfast, which was included, was a full spread of high-quality delicious offerings: fresh pastries and bread, the most delicious ham, individual homemade apple crumbles (which you'd pay for on their own, as a dessert in a restaurant) - hot from the oven. In fact, the price of our room, the cheapest in the chateaux, was inexpensive (which was why we didn't have our hopes up). This hotel perhaps represents some of the best value I've ever gotten while travelling, and topped up with warm and wonderful hosting by our hosts Catherine and Yves (who it seems worked in the hospitality world in different parts of France before coming to the Dordogne) topped off a magnificent experience. If I've used many superlatives in this review, it was because it was... superlative.
