This a small unpretentious hotel tucked away between the swish of Cap Ferret and the dross of Lacanau. I had nowhere booked and after briefly considering Lacanau I back tracked and sought a room at the inn. I was given a family room on the ground floor as soon as Madam realised I might have problem with the stairs and this led to the garden and swimming pool. Early doors I sat outside as the owners chatted to friends and ate en famille. I drank a couple of beers and conversed with the dog.
It was Monday and the restaurant was closed to others so I was the guest and was more than adequately fed: clearly not haute cuisine but more than adequate. The simple mixed hors d’ouveres of anchovy fillets, stuffed baby peppers, prawns, ham and artichoke hearts was particularly interesting. Afterwards I enjoyed talking to the owner about his passion for the deserts that had him following the Paris – Dakar rally on more than a few occasions.
A great place to stop in another wise pretty barren area.
