Entering the world of Le Vieux Logis is also about lingering in one of the lounges, surrounded by memories that will quickly become yours too. It's about enjoying a good cigar in the smoking room decked out in leather and wood.

It's about rediscovering the pleasure of a very gently aged Armagnac, taking the time to appreciate its nuances, strength and softness.

It’s about borrowing a book from a well-stocked library and the delights of dipping into it in a deep armchair close to a real fire.

To put it simply, it's about rediscovering the pleasure of taking time at its own pace.

Le Vieux Logis is indeed one of the jewels in the crown of French hotels and it merits a setting to match its brilliance.

Whether it's the swimming pool of real golden Périgord stone, the murmur of the stream that crosses the garden, the shade of the lime trees or the scent of the boxtree that fills the garden, everything comes together to delight your senses.
