Restaurant: Les Trois Marchands
|
The very inviting Relais des
Trois Châteaux is so
named because it was a post house and restaurant on the route
connecting the châteaus of Blois, Chambord and Cheverny.
Founded in 1850 to welcome travelers on foot, by horse and later by
car, it became the main relay stop between Blois and Romorantin.
It was possible to stable up to 100 saddle and draft horses as well. The part
of the building that adjoins the church next door was a convent. The
restaurant has kept its
original name to maintain the tradition:
Les Trois Marchands.
It has a fine reputation in the region for its superior cuisine and
service, and its chefs have earned the prestigious Maîtres Restaurateurs
designation. The menu is composed of local fresh products resulting
from organic farming and agriculture, and the owners are dedicated to
reducing their impact on nature, preserving natural resources and
limiting pollution.
Today, this fine hotel is
a holiday destination offering easy access to the three
châteaus mentioned as well as so many of the other grand Loire
châteaus. Thirty-five spacious and thoughtfully decorated
guest rooms, all en suite, offer travelers the ultimate
in comfort and convenience. There are elevators and accessibility
for those with reduced mobility, free WiFi and internet
access, and each room has a safe, mini-bar, adjustable air
conditioning, flat-screen TV with over 60 channels, and quality bedding. Visitors
to the French
countryside come away with pleasant recollections of the delightful and
charming villages they came upon around every bend in the road and
along meandering rivers. The Loire Valley , known primarily for
its grand châteaux, is no exception. The tranquil commune
of Cour-Cheverny is on an eleven and a half square mile piece of land
extending
into the Sologne region and was most likely farmland once belonging to
the nearby village of Cheverny. The region produces AOC
wines: The Cour-Cheverny appellation is a dry white wine made from the
Romorantin grape. The Cheverny appellations are a Sauvignon Blanc
white as well as red and rosé wines primarily from the Gamay
grape.
Visitors to this region can tour local vineyards and sample the crisp
Loire Valley wines which are still produced in the traditional
manner. The hotel is the perfect venue for a wedding of up to 50 guests, with a menu priced from €35 per person. There is no dance floor, however. Business meetings and seminars can be held at Relais des Trois Châteaux in one of three salons for groups from 15 to 100 persons and a cocktail reception for up to 120 people. Each reception salon benefits from natural light and high technology equipment creating an atmosphere favorable to work and concentration. |
