Eating at the castle & dining in the surrounding areas
The Château offers a full breakfast for our guests (sweet and savory buffet), served from 8:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m, for 14€/person (free for children under 10).
Tables are available for our guests in the garden and on the square to enjoy an aperitif (drinks available for purchase onsite), or a take out meal from local vendors (see list below), enjoying the calm of the place and the views of the lake, mountains, and garden. A small kitchen is also available to our guests for cooking or using dishes.
As the Château does not have a restaurant (apart from occasional dinner events), we offer below a number of good local addresses, accessible on foot or a short drive away. We strongly recommend booking in advance, particularly in July and August.
