La Détente was and still is primarily a workman's restaurant that serves good very good food for a very acceptable price, about GBP 11.-- for a full menu comprising an entrée, main dish, cheese and a dessert as well as half a pint of wine.
The new owner is a professional cook who will ravish you with traditional french rural cuisine.
There is a bar, a shaded terrace and a small grocery store. Bertrand and his wife, the owners, are very friendly but are not conversant in English. Never mind that, there will mostly be someone around to translate for you.
It is also the main watering hole for he local Brit Pack.
Bon appétit !
