A fortified house during the Middle Ages, and a convent up until 1905, this "chalet" is now a hotel-restaurant run by the Prayer family, for whom tradition and generosity are the answer to everything. Their big-boned, wholehearted score reads like a vintage cookbook: hare pâté, fillet of trout and crayfish and Dauphiné ravioles, or a melt-in-the-mouth chocolate and vanilla ice cream extravaganza. Cosy rooms for overnight stays.
