Auberge de l'Abbatiale

Staying at the local camp site in our Motorhome, we called by this amazing old building on our walk. We had a chat with the chef who was preparing tonight’s meal and he convinced us to book. We are so glad we did. The food & wine was exceptional. The setting beautiful. The waitress excellent. €45 each for the set menu and worth every penny (I mean euro). A great evening. We thanked the chef and walked back to the site less than 1,000m. Perfect. Merci Beaucoup 🇫🇷👌

We spent a very comfortable night in this beautiful old property, that is full of history and charm. The dinner was excellent as was the bottle of local wine. The town looked charming although we had very little time to explore. Hopefully we will be back.

What a find! We had to find a last minute stopover on our drive to the Alps as our travel plans changed, saw the good reviews of the Auberge and booked 2 rooms and dinner for the 4 of us. We were warmly welcomed and made very comfortable by Maria, and were astonished at what a beautiful building we were staying in. The rooms were warm, the beds comfortable and we had plenty of hot water for showers. Dinner was delicious, and freshly home cooked local produce - and they were happy to accommodate the vegetarian in our party. Breakfast was simple but again delicious and our hosts were very friendly and helpful. If we are driving through France again we would definitely return here and recommend it - a very unusual, charming, history-packed place to stay!

A wonderful stay at an historic medieval mansion house. Restore by the owner the property is exceptional with food and wine to match. A highly recommended stay for a few days suitable for any discerning traveller transiting this wonderful region of France.

It’s not every night you sleep in a four poster bed in a C13 building! Auberive is a picturesque village built around the abbey - which is 3 or 4 miles off the motorway near Langres (about 5 hours drive south from Calais). The auberge is the original guest house to the old abbey and has 6 rooms. Our room was large and historic, but very comfortable and warm with a modern en suite shower and loo. Hairdryer also provided. Dinner (€43 per head for 4 courses) and breakfast were in a magnificent dining room with a vaulted ceiling and huge open log fire, approached through the medieval kitchens. The food, cooked by the lady owner, was superb as were the excellent selection of local wines. The lady owner is charming and made us feel extremely welcome. It was a more expensive stay than we might otherwise have chosen for an overnight stop on the way back from skiing, but it was a real treat and a wonderful experience. We would highly recommend it to others. You won’t be disappointed. Stayed March 2022

5 star rating based on cultural experience. Places like this should be treasured. Where else can you dine just like that in a place where monks had dinner in the 13th century. Food and room care are basic but nice. We doubted whether to stay here but this will be more memorable than other hotels en route to the South of France. We are a family with small children and we stayed in the family room.
