Les Glycines
Refined Périgord country house. Warm, intimate, and genuinely green. Think antique stone walls softened by contemporary colour palettes, a sprawling garden, and a chef who grows much of what ends up on your plate. More serious gastronomy than pure resort; the setting is the attraction.
Book a Junior Suite Terrace for direct access to the park — completely different feel from a standard room.
Why It Matters
One of the Dordogne's most celebrated hotel-restaurants. Chef Pascal Lombard holds a Michelin star at Le 1862 and a Bib Gourmand at the Bistro des Glycines — two Michelin accolades under one roof. The property is also exceptional for its sheer greenness: the park and gardens are among the lushest in the region, backing onto forest-covered cliffs.
Les Glycines is a former 19th-century coaching inn, on the edge of Les Eyzies-de-Tayac along the Vézère River, sitting inside a 3-hectare park of poplars, weeping willows, rose bushes, and palms by the outdoor pool. The buildings date from 1862 and have been fully restored by chef-owner Pascal Lombard and his wife Laurence, who blend original stone and oak with a contemporary take on country-house style. The Michelin-starred Le 1862 restaurant is the main draw, backed up by a proper Sothys spa and eco-lodges perched on stilts above the park.
Where You'll Stay
6 room types available
Chambre Charme (Charm Room)
More spacious than the Classic rooms, with elevated décor and furnishings. Still in the main house, decorated with refined textiles and a mix of historical charm and modern comfort. Each is individually styled.
Chambre Classique (Classic Room)
Entry-level rooms in the main 19th-century building. Classic country-house style with neutral tones and antique furnishings, private bathroom, satellite TV, air conditioning, minibar, Nespresso, safe, and free Wi-Fi. Comfortable and well-equipped, though some guests note they're on the snug side.
Eco-Lodge
Independent wooden lodges set apart from the main building on stilts since 2014, with a terrace overlooking the park and the outdoor pool. Rustic-minimalist style. Bedroom and living area with sofa bed, bathtub plus Italian shower, independent toilet, robes, slippers, hairdryer, air conditioning, safe, LCD TV, Canal+, Wi-Fi, minibar, and Nespresso. Direct parking access.
Junior Suite
Spacious suites with a separate living room area overlooking the park. High-end furniture and refined décor; each is distinctly decorated so no two are identical. Communicating rooms are available on request.
Junior Suite Terrace
Five of the most sought-after rooms: junior suites with a private terrace giving direct access to the park. Spacious living room, high-end furnishings that blend the historic spirit of the house with contemporary luxury. All different from each other.
Lodge Suite
The most exclusive standalone unit with a private terrace. A wood-and-greenery cabin offering full privacy, direct parking access, and an impressive view of the hotel park. All the same in-room amenities as the Eco-Lodges.
