La Ferme du Cheval de Trait

Office de Tourisme et des Congrès de Bagnoles de l'Orne

Plenty of parking on site was welcome, as were the smiles of the receptionist.This hotel / restaurant is in our view locked in a time warp. It would have been the epitome of grace and charm in the 1950&#39;s and a classic example of an upmarket get-away, in tune with the spa town, which is Bagnoles sur L&#39;Orne.. It is clean &amp; well decorated, good linen with Limoges pottery. Judging by the age of the clientele, this style suits the over 80&#39;s admirably.The restaurant has an accomplished chef; one or two of the dishes were superb, The goats cheese starter was well judged and the Marnier soufl&eacute;e was divine. But my wife&#39;s steak was tough and overdone, her pat&eacute; de compagne uninspired and we had to send the main course potato dish back to the kitchen as it had not been properly heated up.It is quite possible that our fellow diners were all delighted with their meals - we heard no adverse comments from adjacent tables. Admittedly, this was a wet, quiet Monday evening in the middle of April and Bagnoles is not yet buzzing with well healed visitors. But, in our view, the restaurant (we cannot speak for the hotel) needs a lot of investment and the input of a talented interior designer to bring it into the 21st century. All the staff will then be able to take pride again in their offering.

Usual professional service, food interesting, well presented and high quality. And as ever consistent. New wine list is interesting too.
