Hostellerie les Hauts de Sainte Maure

Such a stunning oasis behind the big old gates of this former coaching inn - yes the garden is overgrown , but it’s charming . It’s owned by a family and they have 8 rooms available . All have 4 poster beds . Ours had a lovely terracotta tiles . We strolled up to the swimming pool for a dip and that was very refreshing - the indoor pool was closed which was ok for us . The private car park is located round the back but we also found parking right outside . Dinner was ok , it was a Sunday my braised endive starter with cheese and bacon was very tasty , my husband had smoked salmon . The mains were a bit lack lustre although tasty we have been spoilt on previous stays elsewhere . This place is very special and the owner goes beyond to make you feel at home . Lovely breakfast not a buffet brought to the table .
