La Croix Blanche de Sologne
was originally a convent became an Inn, in the XVth century and in 1779
was bought by Mme. Marie-Madeleine Thibonneau, the first chef owner of
the Inn. Since then, eighteen women have been in charge of the kitchen
and it is still so today. It is located in one of the best preserved
villages of the Sologne, surrounded by original and immaculately
preserved dwellings. The Sologne, being only one and a half hour from
Paris is one of the preferred countryside places for many celebrities,
such as the Louis Vuitton family, who have their permanent residence in
Chaumont sur Tharonne. Maybe because of the benevolent climate and
proximity to Paris.
La Croix Blanche de Sologne is more a gastronomic restaurant than a
hotel. One could even say is a restaurant with rooms. There are fifteen
rooms in total, ten on the upper level of the main building and five in
two outbuildings facing the garden. The rooms in the main building are
decorated in a traditional old style, and the ones in the outer
buildings have a modern style. All the rooms are sparkling clean and
fitted with all up-to-date comfort. On the other hand, the restaurant,
which is the main affair of La Croix Blanche, is excellent, with a wine
list that covers just about every region of France. |
