Lovely place to stop for a light lunch or fika. Plenty of parking, on a pretty lake, but we didn't find a toilet. Dog friendly and nice atmosphere and monastery ruins to see.

Lovely cafe by the lake. We stopped for lunch -- a small, but elegant selection of sandwiches of which my family had one each and all were well satisfied. When we left, we found our car wouldn't start. Maria helped us contact someone to help and averted our emergency. She was our guardian angel!

Perfect stop for a fresh sallad or a healthy sandwich or a coffee and cake. Beautiful situated by a lake where it is possible to go for a swim. Gluten-free, sugar-free and dairy free options available. Delicious sallad adapted to suit food allergies.

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
