A warren of tiny, rustic rooms makes up the dining spaces in this utterly charming 18th-century house with five working fireplaces. In summer, you can also dine alfresco by a fountain on the garden terrace. The romantic mood is enhanced by a sleekly contemporary menu that features nightly variants on local oysters, foie gras, and seafood soups (like crab and shrimp with green curry). Vegetarians always have at least one well-considered option, often employing seitan (“wheat meat”).
