Franck Quinton is a happy man
This former hunting lodge on the edges of the Andaine forest was bought on impulse 25 years ago by his father, a pork butcher, who set up his business here and naturally roped in his son. Since his childhood, Franck Quinton has bathed in the food trade but his objective was the luxury end of the market. Graduate from the Hotelier School in Douvres la Delivrande he worked as sous-chef in the Lutecia in Paris before deciding, 15 years ago, to return to the family manor to take up the position of chef. When all you have to do is walk out through your front door to find yourself in the middle of the forest, it is quite natural to become passionate about the hidden smells and tastes that can be discovered there. " I discovered mushrooms thanks to friends who are mycologists" explains Franck Quinton... implying of course mushrooms other than cepes (boletus), trompettes (trumpets), and girolles (chanterelles). His preference is for the Golmotte, a fool's mushroom with a taste of fresh nut, or the clitocybe Odora with its aniseed fragrance, delicious when infused in milk. In all, there are thirty or so different species which he incorporates into garnishes, tarts and desserts! " But the mushroom is not just any old product " points out Franck Quinton, it has to be tamed. Some years they may even fail to appear. You have to learn to be patient and turn your hand to other things. " I am interested in all traditional regional produce " with an art that only the great chefs can master - " simplicity".

Local Attractions:
- Gorges de Villiers Walks - Bagnoles-de-l'Orne
Chapelle St Antoine (19C) is the ideal place for a break during a walk around the Gorges de Villiers.
Itineraries avaible from the Tourist Information Office.
This stunning natural site, traversed by the River Gourbe, can be easily explored thanks to a number of well-marked itineraries. The circuit that takes in Chapelle St Antoine is about an hour long. It takes you first to the river via an impressive stone area. You will come across the ancient Chaude-Eau Fountain near the bridge over the Gourbe. The track then crosses the river, climbing towards a wide path before plunging into the forest. The chapel (1875) is set in a clearing. The circuit is completed by following the river.
- Chateau de Lassay
One of the few French castles whose original architecture remains intact today.
This imposing castle is an impressive sight with its eight pointed towers and machicolations. It was rebuilt in 1458 and is a fine example of military architecture. After crossing the stone bridge you enter the barbican, designed to protect the drawbridge. Moving into the central building, you will see the display of weapons and 16 and 17C furniture. The tour then leads you to the banks of the lake, via the casemates (shelters). The grounds and medieval garden give a pleasant view over the site as a whole.
- Old Town - Domfront
The old town of Domfront has retained its towers, its half-timbered houses and its private mansions.
Domfront's historic centre is surrounded by fortifications which include 13 towers out of an initial total of 24 (the best preserved are on the South side).The area comprises fine half-timbered houses (number 40 rue Docteur-Barrabe) and carefully restored 16C private mansions. Not to be missed: the neo-Byzantine church of St Julien (1924), featuring an unusual interior plan, and the town hall decorated with drawings and oil paintings by local artist Charles Leandre. From the North terre-plein of the ramparts, there is a pleasant view of the deep Varenne Valley.
