La Belle Vie

N° 3/1 EAST · POOL.RESTAURANT

A walled garden with a pool at the centre, a Belgian-French and Thai kitchen, and rooms to stay in.

The house

Ferns hang from the roof, and the noise of the road stops at the gate. Breakfast starts at half past eight, lunch runs slow, and the arches light up once it gets dark. Carole runs the house.

Reopened

The house closed for a rebuild and came back with the pool redone and a second name over the door. None of that reached the internet — so it is written down here.
