We first called in for morning coffee and were really made to feel welcome, so we returned the following evening for a meal. We arrived on our bicycles from a nearby camp site. Again, we were made very welcome and we enjoyed a really delicious meal. The atmosphere was great and certainly better than my French. The staff were most efficient and helped us through our pathetic attempts to order. By the end I am sure that my French had improved.During the meal the skies darkened and clouds rolled in producing a scene which I had only thought could have been produced by CGI experts for a scene from Harry Potter. Moving us swiftly inside their restaurant we finished our meal just as the heavens opened and those dramatic skies produced torrential rain. We paid the bill and went to get our bikes to return to our campsite about 2 miles away. The proprietor saw this an insisted that her husband take us back in their car. They looked after our bikes which we picked the following morning. Through this review can we once again thank them for their kindness. This aside I can thoroughly recommend Le Relais de la Gourgue for a great menu, great food and a great atmosphere. We are sure to revisit if staying anywhere near Sanquinet in the future.
