Domaine de Presle Saumur The Originals Relais
The Domaine de Presle Saumur, The Originals Relais opened its doors in June 2018. The culmination of a personal project for Dominique and Jean who dreamt of setting out on a new professional adventure together. The old mill and hunting lodge belonging to Maréchal Maillé-Brézé (Cardinal de Richelieu's brother-in-law), which had already been converted into a hotel-restaurant just outside of Distré, was for sale. A 4 hectare park, old buildings with lots of character and great potential... "We didn't hesitate!" Compliance with standards, renovation of the 21 rooms and restaurant, decoration, clean-up of the park: in the span of 3 months, the 3 star is transformed. The charm and tranquillity are enchanting. The new chef Christophe's inventive and refined cuisine awakens the taste buds. The warm and friendly welcome by Dominique, Jean and their team adds the final touch. More than a stopover in the vicinity of Saumur, the Domaine de Presle Saumur, The Originals Relais is worth the detour.
