As much as we adore the rich, traditional gastronomy of southwest France, there are evenings when nothing hits the spot quite like the comforting, sun-drenched flavors of classic Italian cuisine. While the peaceful sanctuary of Le Boisdalon immerses you in the quintessential French countryside, a delightful change of culinary scenery is never far away. Just a short, scenic drive from your room in Yviers lies the charming neighboring village of Saint-Séverin, home to a local favorite: La Trattoria.
Choosing our Chambres d’Hôtes means embracing a holiday where you can effortlessly mix absolute tranquility with wonderful dining experiences. Our Bed & Breakfast is your quiet retreat, but nearby gems like La Trattoria ensure your evenings are filled with variety and warmth. Whether you are craving a perfectly blistered pizza after a long day of exploring, or a romantic pasta dinner, this welcoming restaurant delivers a true slice of la dolce vita in the heart of the Charente.
Authentic Flavors and Warm Hospitality
From the moment you step through the doors of La Trattoria, you are greeted by an inviting, unpretentious atmosphere filled with the mouthwatering aromas of garlic, fresh basil, and baking dough. The setting is cozy and intimate, making it a popular gathering spot for both locals and visitors.
The menu is a celebration of Italian classics prepared with heart. You can expect a fantastic selection of traditional wood-fired pizzas with thin, crispy crusts and generous, high-quality toppings. If you prefer pasta, their rich, flavorful sauces and perfectly cooked dishes are equally satisfying, beautifully accompanied by a curated selection of French and Italian wines.

Return to the Gentle Silence of Le Boisdalon
After a deeply satisfying meal filled with rich flavors and great conversation, the quiet drive back through the rolling countryside is a joy. As the lights of Saint-Séverin fade into the rearview mirror, the peaceful country lanes guide you straight back to the absolute serenity of our estate.
When you arrive home, the night is yours. Step out onto our terrace, gaze up at the incredible, star-filled Charente sky, and perhaps enjoy a final digestif before retiring to your luxurious room. We are always happy to call ahead and book a table for you at La Trattoria, ensuring your evening is as smooth and delightful as possible!
