La Chataigneraie at St. Andre de Najac / La Garde Viaur

Every year I give this place a mention. Smart it is not, in a beautiful place and with a great area for swimming in the river after your crepes, it is perfect. High on the list of places to go with children. Also if you like Jazz, the evenings are given over to Bossa Nova, Jazz musique with concerts gratuit. Have a beer, glass of wine and  crepes, galettes, salad or just an ice cream It is open in July, August and September only and it is always closed on a Tuesday, enjoy the surroundings and the music. Mozzy cream or spray essential in the evening as you are right next to the river. If you have youngsters do not let them bang their feet on the dusty floor. We were nearly thrown out one year  when a big group of our families children discovered they could send clouds of dust in to the sky by stamping their feet. Oh! no I should not have mentioned that as they all thought it was so funny, and if their Mums read this and remind them it could all happen again.

Val says for the person who says tell me more this is the English version of the hand out leaflet.
"In a cheerful atmosphere, nearby the Lagarde Viaur plage, La Chataigneraie greets you outside in terrace. Non stop courses from noon to midnight [except Tuesday] All the time we make every effort to propose you for salads, pancakes, sweets, fruits and vegetables issued from organic production."

To find it go to St. Andre de Najac and find the Relais de Mont Viaur, a newly done up  restaurant [also worth a visit another day] Then follow the road down to the valley bottom.
