La Ferronnière

The Ardennes


This ivy-clad, half-timbered mansion, 500m northeast of Bouillon's centre, is decorated in a lightly classical style, while newer duplex suites feel sleeker and include free access to the spa (€30 extra for other guests). There's a beautifully maintained little garden and the gourmet restaurant's flower-decked dining terrace has a perfectly framed if distant castle view (lunch €26, dinner menus €37 to €70).
