The story

Le Tilleul - Château du Theil: Modern Cuisine in Ussel, Bib Gourmand

A Castle Transformed

In the heart of Haute Corrèze, Château du Theil has undergone its most beautiful transformation since its construction in 1120. Now a four-star hotel, it houses Le Tilleul, a restaurant and bar centered on the living. The setting is a 6-hectare park that changes with the seasons, offering a backdrop of history and nature.

Modern Cuisine, Local Roots

The kitchen at Le Tilleul is driven by a deep respect for local gastronomy. The chef works in close collaboration with nearby producers, sourcing ingredients that capture the essence of the Corrèze terroir. The philosophy is clear: taste nature, sublimated. The approach is modern, yet firmly anchored in the values of the land. This dedication to quality and authenticity is what earned Le Tilleul its Michelin Bib Gourmand, an award that recognizes good quality, good value cooking.

A Place to Dine and Unwind

Beyond the dining room, the bar offers a carefully selected regional wine and cocktail list, designed to showcase the best of the local area. The atmosphere throughout the château reflects a blend of history and modernity, with 12 elegantly appointed rooms that echo the beauty of the eras the castle has lived through. Le Tilleul is open for dinner, with a focus on a genuine, ingredient-led experience that makes a meal here a highlight of any stay in Ussel.
