We chose the Cuq en Terrasses for a bit of R and R after our wedding in Ambres, and it was a great decision! This is a lovely, small family run hotel/restaurant which provides a very high quality of hospitality at very reasonable prices. We stayed in one of the suites which is a splendid and spacious room with a lovely little terrace overlooking the view across the valley. There is an incredibly personal touch at the Cuq en Terrasses, the joint owners are always on hand to welcome you or help with anything you may need. They are also highly international and speak multiple languages perfectly (not always a given for the region!) There are a lot of great recommendations for things to do in the local area within the guestbooks in the lounge area, and at the same time it's also a great little place to relax during the daytime in the summer months with a well maintained garden and pool area (it should be noted that the pool was quite chilly!) Dinners in the Cuq en Terrasses restaurant are truly excellent, with a quality of cuisine aligned with high end restaurants & a wine list which focuses on local produce rather than big producers from other well known regions within France. Dishes are innovative, and although the menu is fairly small, we greatly enjoyed dining there on two of the evenings. We also made the most of the spa facility, using the jacuzzi/sauna privately on one of the evenings, which is a nice additional option if you're looking for that kind of experience. The house itself is charming and historical, maintained brilliantly with plenty of character. The surrounding area is a little remote, so I'd certainly recommend having a car if you are planning a visit as there's not much of note accessible by foot. We will gladly return in the future and just want to say once again a huge thank you to Philippe and the entire team for an excellent stay, just what we needed after a busy wedding week previously!
