"Pour fêter les 96 ans de ma Maman, nous décidons d'aller à la Chaumière à Villeneuve sur Allier. Et là, oh surprise, nous sommes accueillis par la patronne, souriante, charmante, dans son restaurant d'un style campagnard chaleureux. Tout de suite, avant même de s'assoir, nous nous sentons déjà un peu chez nous ! Nous commandons notre menu (à 12 €) et rapidement nous voyions arriver une entrée : carpaccio de bœuf très joliment présenté , suivi par un morceau de..."

Des plats soignés, goûteux et servis par la charmante maîtresse des lieux. Expérience à renouveler pour profiter de la terrasse extérieure. Je le recommande particulièrement."
Verified guest · 2 weeks ago"I can’t think of anything I don’t like about this fabulous restaurant! Superb food, ambience and exemplary service. How lovely to enjoy lunch on an early autumn day in a tree covered courtyard amidst carefully curated objet to include contemporary sculpture- hugely complemented by a splendid view over the River Allier. Fresh local produce to include vegetables and fish ensured an authentic dining experience. I love this place!"
Verified guest · 2 weeks ago"Unfortunately I didn't eat, but the location is awesome. New owners since beginning of July, the Lady was sweet and very welcoming, tasty belgian beers and home-made food on a terrace with views. They also have a few room and canoeing available on the river. Perfect for a pit stop on your bike as well. I hope you make this work for a long time."

Verified guest · 2 month ago"“Magic night!” After riding 600 km on a motorcycle through the cold autumn air, we finally arrived at La Chaumière. The warm orange lights glowing in the night immediately made us feel welcome. We were greeted with kindness, smiles, and genuine hospitality — it was the best night of our entire trip. The hotel is beautiful, with charming vintage-style rooms and a lovely restaurant. Our room was spotless, cozy, and peaceful, with plenty of hot water — just what we..."
Verified guest · 3 month ago"Très bien accueilli par les gérants de ce restaurant, ils sont d'une gentillesse que l'on ne retrouve pas partout. Les plats sont frais et faits maison d'où un peu d'attente mais quand on veut de la qualité et de la fraîcheur dans nos produits cela vaut largement le coup. Pendant l'apéro une petite collation offerte qui change des cacahuètes que l'on trouve dans tous les restaurants. Le cadre est idyllique avec vue sur l'Allier, on se croirait presque les pieds..."
