Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
On the Le Suquet hill above Laguiole, surrounded by the open pastures of the Aubrac plateau.
The rooms
Raw linen drapes dress cream concrete walls, and floor-to-ceiling glass looks straight out over the rolling Aubrac meadows.

Le Suquet
Sébastien Bras serves two-Michelin-starred tasting menus drawn from wild flora, with tables looking out over the open plateau.
How it began
Angèle Bras opened a modest village bistro in 1956, launching three generations of cooking before the family built Le Suquet in 1992.
