A sweetly nostalgic hotel; famous for its links to Le Mans motor racing, celebrity visitors, good food and conviviality. Great value, too

You'll feel nicely French spilling onto the terrace and pavement overlooking the lovely town square; or chatting to the barman who's been making the drinks here for years. The renovated Art Deco dining room and pretty pool beside the river are charming spots to relax after a day exploring.

Bedrooms, named after famous racing car drivers, nod to the past. Come down to a continental spread for breakfast: boiled eggs, pastries and jam, cereals. Lunch and dinner are classic French bistro style: good value set lunches and evening meals eaten on the terrace or on formal, white tablecloths inside.

The châteaux of the Loire are an hour away; the dreamy valley has some fine historic buildings, including Le Lude with its glorious furniture and gardens. Vineyard tours in an eccentric pre-war bus can be arranged; bicycle trips or hot-air ballooning too.
