Le Vieux Logis – Michelin-Starred Modern Cuisine in Trémolat, Dordogne

A Historic Setting for Modern Cuisine

In the heart of the Périgord region, near the villages of Lalinde and Trémolat, Le Vieux Logis occupies a former agricultural estate that has been a member of Relais & Châteaux since 1955. This family-run establishment, a 4-star hotel and restaurant, is set within a cluster of historic buildings: a main house, an old farmstead, and the most distinctive space of all—the gourmet restaurant, housed in what was once a tobacco drying shed.

The atmosphere is one of authentic charm and understated elegance. The property is surrounded by the landscapes that inspired Henry Miller, who famously wrote that the Dordogne would survive even if France ceased to exist. It is an ideal base for exploring the region's medieval castles, decorated caves, and typical villages, but the restaurant itself is a destination.
