Our aim is to take you on a stroll alongside the Loire, a protective mother topped by mists that envelop the great natural regions that border her.
Her unwavering, poetic sisters, so to speak…
Sologne, Perche, Brenne and Beauce: a whole palette of colours that has led to an approach that is nothing if not inspired, combined with an ever-curious eye taking in the beauty of the world.
We drink deep from these abundant terroirs that surround us, in order to provide you with the results of visible and sometimes amused work on a holistic vision stemming from a form of gentle lyricism, in the many utopias imbued with the Château of Chaumont-sur-Loire magic.
In dining room and kitchen alike, we accompany you with simplicity as our watchword.
Welcome to Le Grand Chaume!
