Repère Sauvage

A manor house on 42 hectares of forest, meadows, and ponds in the Loire Valley, the kind of estate where you half-expect to find someone in a hunting jacket. Repère Sauvage is a sixteen-room country house hotel inside a 19th-century hunting lodge, and the team has pulled off something tricky: rural hospitality that feels warm rather than themed. The restaurant leans on local produce, and the Michelin Guide has taken note.
