The Experience
A calming, charming spot just a few miles from the autoroute and an ideal stopover for travellers fresh off, or headed for, the Calais ferry. The nearby countryside brims with lesser-known towns such as the medieval, fortified, Montreuil and there are châteaux, churches and museums to visit. Inside is pretty much the same as it’s been for many years, with a hallway, dining room and sitting area with a blazing fire when it’s chilly.
Plain, unfussy bedrooms are slowly being refurbished, all are in the main building apart from one in the courtyard, ideal for those with dogs. The restaurant is open for all meals and the menu is as retro as the inn itself, unchanged for decades. Trout is fished from the pond in the park and there are crêpes with ham, mushrooms and Béchamel sauce. Wines and regional beers are also served.
At breakfast you’ll get honey from local bees, fresh pastries and bread, hams, local cheese and good coffee.

I love old-fashioned inns, full of character and this is one of the best-preserved I have come across. The enthusiastic new owners understand this too and saved it from being bought by a hotel chain and ruined - they kept everything, including the menu, chef and the flowers on the façade, to everyone's delight.

Location
The neighbourhood
This is pretty, green countryside (not unlike Kent) just 30 minutes inland from the very trendy seaside resort of Le Touquet. It's a gentle, rolling landscape of forest with vast fields of wheat, dotted with small villages and great fortified farms with tiled roofs. There are plenty of good walks, horsey types will find polo, racing and show jumping at Le Touquet, as well as endless beaches.
Local points of interest from Clement Lefebvre
- Ancient fortified market town of Montreuil-sur-Mer
- Le Touquet for beach sports, sandy beach/dunes, horse racing
- 3 nearby golf courses
- Pretty surrounding countryside
- The Tunnel Calais is an hour away
- The property is located about 30 mins from Boulogne , where you can visit the popular Nausicaa sea aquarium

Introducing
Clement Lefebvre
Clement and his co-owners are a group of young, local investors who all chipped in to save the inn when it was under threat of closure. Their story is very heart warming, locals and tourists alike are fond of this place. They kept on all the staff, including the chef, some of whom have worked here for decades and think of it as home. The manager is a charming chap called Grégoire.
A lovely place to stay. Good rooms, friendly hosts and great food. Easy to get to from Calais and away from the traffic. Montreuil is not far for a visit and the village is nice to walk around. A peaceful haven.
