The rooms
At Le Barn, architecture meets nature. The 2 buildings, typical of the region, have been completely renovated to accommodate almost all of the 73 rooms. Depending on the room you choose, you'll enjoy a view of the paddocks, the surrounding woods, the meadows or the well and mill. The style is inspired by the French countryside and American Shaker furniture.

The spa in the old mill
The wellness area is housed in an old mill. It features a hammam and sauna and 2 bright treatment rooms where a masseuse-reflexologist and an ayurvedic masseur practice their art. There's also a Nordic bath overlooking the woods and horse paddocks. The wellness area is open to non-hotel guests.
Breakfast
In the morning, enjoy a free gourmet breakfast on your terrace or on the grass. For lunch and dinner, discover Le Barn's restaurant: La Serre. Around large wooden tables or under the glass roof, you're sure to enjoy fresh produce from the neighboring vegetable garden.
Seasonal products
Throughout the year, the restaurant's map is tuned to seasonal produce: pink radishes, asparagus, celery sticks, broad beans, white onions, strawberries, cherries or rhubarb. On the menu: large seasonal salads, blanquette de veau, poule au pot, leg of lamb and rotisserie-stuffed chicken. Delicious!
Location
The estate is an enchanting place: the rustle of oak leaves, the scent of mushrooms or the silhouettes of deer. And wherever you look, you see horses. The Rambouillet forest is ideal for horseback riding. Other activities include walks on the GR1 and GR655, yoga, boating on the pond, fishing and golf at Château de Rochefort.
