Chambre d'Hôtes au Château de Belcastel

Restaurants nearby

• Vieux Pont★ Michelin Nestling in a leafy green site and dominated by its castle, the quaint village of Belcastel rises up on the right bank of the Aveyron River. Work up an appetite by strolling along its cobbled streets and up and down its steep paths! Quietly feeding hungry travellers is something of a tradition in this family-owned business opened by the grandparents of sisters Nicole and Michèle Fagegaltier, now at the helm. The enticing menu naturally highlights local delicacies such as lamb and veal from Aveyron and Ségala, Aubrac beef and Bigorre black pork, without forgetting fish and farmhouse cheese. Sto100m
• Restaurant Hervé Busset★ Michelin From Conques to Rodez, where he relocated when he took over Émilie and Thomas Roussey's restaurant, chef Hervé Busset continues to present himself as a cook and harvester. The produce he gathers from the surrounding fields and forests is supplemented by purchases from the market opposite his new premises. Hervé's creative cuisine is dictated by nature: comfrey, marigold, hedge nettle, meadowsweet and nasturtium flowers grace the plates with harmony and finesse throughout the surprise set menu. Completely refurbished, the chic, inviting setting ensures privacy for guests. The sommelier has exce19.6km
• Émilie & Thomas - Moulin de Cambelong★ Michelin This lovely mill built of local stone and flagstone stands in a bucolic setting on the banks of a river. The restaurant has exposed rafters and large picture windows. Having worked in the restaurants of Pierre Gagnaire, Michel Bras and Alain Ducasse, Émilie and Thomas Roussey, both chefs, have swapped their premises with those of Hervé Busset, who is now based in the heart of Rodez. Working in tandem, the pair create natural cuisine that gives pride of place to seasonal fruit and vegetables supplied by carefully selected local producers.

• L'ObéliasBib In the Ségala region, nestling in a village that is famous for its Cistercian church, this recently renovated little restaurant is accommodated in a half-timbered house. A well-travelled couple of industry professionals, Guilhem and Léonie, chef and pastry chef respectively, put a skilful spin on traditional fare such as shredded shoulder of lamb served tajine-style or, for dessert, citrus millefeuille with caramel and blood orange sorbet. The well-balanced and appealing menu they have come up with abounds with fresh and colourful dishes – plus it's excellent value for money. In short, they've21.3km
• Bistrot le HéronBib At the foot of this gorgeous village, known for its abbey church and Pierre Soulages's stained-glass windows, Moulin de Cambelong is home to this bistronomy restaurant, a friendly and down-to-earth alternative to Émilie and Thomas's MICHELIN-starred restaurant. Tuck into indulgent cuisine: tomato gazpacho, mussels and vierge vinaigrette; pulled pork with sorrel sauce.23.2km
• Auprès d'Angèle This lovely old house built of local stone is now a chic bistro complete with six cosy guestrooms – a delightful new venture launched by Michel Bras and run by his niece, Audrey. Partners Guillem and Zoé, previously at La Halle aux Grains in Paris, work in tandem in the kitchen. The menu is a homage to Audrey's grandmother and Michel's mother: chicken supreme, roasted sunflower seeds, market-fresh aubergine and a deliciously old-fashioned gratin de coquillettes (a cheesy pasta dish). The sophisticated decor features blown-glass lights reminiscent of the grapes of Marcillac, the rapidly expandi14.0km
• Cascade What a pretty village clinging to a cliff and famous for its cooling waterfall! What a pleasant, convivial place, with its warm, colourful bistro decor, lovely old wooden floorboards, counter and arty posters on the walls (and let's not forget the terrace overlooking the courtyard in front of the town hall). In the kitchen, chef Marine Guichou cooks up a feast, using carefully selected local produce, which she skilfully prepares in a fresh, authentic bistro style. And with her almond pannacotta and chocolate mousse on a cocoa crumble, she has created the quintessential dessert for anyone with 15.1km
• Le Clos - Château de Labro In an outbuilding of the château, this restaurant boasts a baroque style, with waxed concrete floors, vintage chairs and a chandelier. But what really catches the attention is the chef's indulgent contemporary cuisine. High-quality ingredients make for clear, distinctive flavours, a case in point being the lovely roasted carrot starter with its crispy Vieux Rodez cheese tuile. The presentation of the poultry on a compote of tart cherry tomatoes is impeccable. They also have a number of guestrooms and a spa for those looking to prolong the experience.16.1km
• L'AngleBib This hidden gem is nestled in a village at the confluence of two rivers – the Aveyron and the Viaur. A contemporary take on an artists' bistro, it boasts artwork on the walls and affordable prices. Working solo in his small, glass-walled kitchen, chef Arnaud Ronxin crafts ingenious dishes with the mission of showcasing seasonal produce. Think oven-roasted veal with confit potatoes and chanterelles, or lamb trotters with a red wine sauce. The more ambitious multi-course evening set menu is different every evening.39.9km
• Opéra After stints in three-star restaurants in Italy and with the Bras family, at the Musée Soulages and at their flagship establishment in Laguiole, Italian chef Vasco Baldisserotto has gone solo in this smart restaurant outside the town centre. He signs a pedigree Gallic score, albeit tinged with Italian influences, particularly from his native Venetian region. Accustomed to top-drawer produce, he painstakingly sources and selects only the best local ingredients. The menus celebrate the seasons and his suppliers, on whom he frequently shines the spotlight. Examples include braised Aveyron beef sh17.9km
