“I must have stayed in hundreds of places while cycling through France over the years. This has got to be number one.”
I liked so much there probably isn’t room to say it all. I received a warm welcome, there was a secure place for my bike in the lounge, the room was fine (overlooked the main road, old N7, but I slept with the window open and wasn’t disturbed by traffic). The hospitality, food and staff were all wonderful. This place is an absolute gem. I can’t really comment on the location with regard to the main town as I didn’t venture far, no need, and I ate in the hotel restaurant itself. And really glad I did. Suuuuuperb! Lovely food, great music. A really great ambience.

“Unpretentious and authentic.”
The staff was so friendly at this typical French Auberge and Restaurant. Deco is very joyfully retro with a lot of care for the detail and the food was homemade and nice. For anyone who likes to get the feel of old-time France you should stay at La Pignata. Unpretentious and authentic.

“Convenient, Friendly”
Fantastic Breakfast, Well Presented and Perfect for the Day Ahead. We also took advantage of the Restaurant for our evening meal which was good value and wholesome. Top Tip: Just across the road is the Trois Abeilles Nougat Factory. You won't get a tour of the Factory but you will have access to the Factory Shop..... and it's extremely inexpensive!

“Great overnight stop with wonderful dinner”
Very basic but comfortable and clean room, 15 minute walk to center, free parking. The best part is the restaurant that has a great atmosphere, awesome staff (that speaks English) and very nice food (the fish soup!!) for a friendly price. Highly recommend (if you want to have dinner in the weekend make a reservation)

Traditional, quirky and quaint Auberge! The restaurant was absolutely excellent and the Staff are so professional and entertaining! Breakfast was great value and nothing seems too much trouble for the staff. Ideal location for travelling onwards too. Parking is free and easily located. All in all, great value and we will return!
