There is real soul here. And as a family affair, you can feel the sense of camaraderie with Elise, the daughter of French cook and founder Marc Veyrat, and her talented team. It’s tight-knit too, with young seasonal staff putting their heart and passion into everything they do. Yes, this mountain spot might well be known for its food first (and it’s still a working farm) – but with a few beautifully traditional rooms to bed down in, there’s much more magic than what’s just on the menu.
