Set in its own private estate north of the main road, Parc-le-Breos offers 16 en-suite rooms in a Gothic Victorian hunting lodge. The majestic lounge, conservatory and dining room have grand fireplaces that crackle into action in winter, and there are great walks in the vicinity. Book ahead for the three-course dinner (£20), served 6pm to 8pm Wednesday to Sunday.
