Welcome to the Dordogne!
For the summer of 2026, renowned British chef Harriet Mansell is taking over the restaurant at La Closerie de la Beyne, bringing her signature, seasonal, wild cooking to our estate.
Harriet’s cooking is rooted in the natural world, in the hedgerows, woodlands and terrain that surround wherever she finds herself. She is excited to discover a new larder in the Dordogne…
Plums, walnuts, figs, cherries, quince and apples from our orchards, wild herbs and flowers from our meadows and surrounding woodlands, and regional specialities such as summer truffles and ceps from the local markets.
She is offering two weekly changing menus, built around the best of what the season offers.
We hope you will enjoy this new phase of our restaurant.
Sample chef’s menu
The Menus
Four-course ‘Garden’ menu at €45
Full menu at €65 (includes more snacks and courses)
For Children
We warmly encourage children to participate in the full dining experience alongside adults. Smaller portions of our four-course menu are available for children with smaller appetites at €35. For children who prefer something simpler, we offer a pasta dish with a choice of bolognaise, pesto, or plain with cheese, served with vegetable sticks or salad and bread, at €25 per head.
Chef Harriet
Harriet was raised in Devon, before going on to chef all over the world, in places such as London, Bristol, Copenhagen, the Seychelles, Antigua and Europe. Harriet’s passion has always been to connect with her location through use of indigenous ingredients and learning of local practices.
She returned to the south west of England in 2019 to set up her restaurants, Robin Wylde and Lilac, but now she has returned to nomadic cooking by landing in the south west of France.
Native and wild foods
“It is my belief that educating people about native and wild foods, alongside an education on the foods that we should and could be eating, is more important than ever. No matter whether a person is in the country or the city, to offer a lens through which to view the world that will inspire and captivate, to place a value on the world around us, can inspire and bridge the gaps between people and places.
There is a connection and community that exist between us all.”
Harriet Mansell
We are a small, seasonal kitchen and every table matters to us

We were staying nearby with family and my daughter booked this restaurant as part of the celebrations for my special birthday! The host was lovely and welcoming. We were lucky to enjoy beautiful weather and sat outside on the terrace. We all thoroughly enjoyed the food including our 2 grandchildren who were allowed to play in the treehouse and swings. At the end of the meal a beautiful chocolate mouse cake complete with candles was bought out for us. The location, food, atmosphere was simply the best. Thoroughly recommend.

Our selection of organic wines
Hand picked after extensive research and building relationships with a handful of the best wine makers of the region, La Closerie’s wine list focuses on organic and biodynamic wines, sourced from within a 30km radius of here.
A range of natural, non sulphite wines is also offered.
A sustainable approach
By focusing on organic, seasonal and local produce the environmental impact of the food served here is minimised. Complemented by sourcing ingredients from La Closerie’s organic vegetable garden, fruit and nut trees, summer truffles and wild foraged plants when there is an abundance.
The Permaculture food forest also produces a wide variety of ingredients which allows more reliance on the produce of this land.
MARKET GARDENER, LOCAL PRODUCERS, BAKER, BUTCHER…
As Harriet’s approach to cooking has a local focus, we have taken her to meet small, family-run producers in the villages neighbouring La Closerie.
The menu will feature bread and flour from Naussannes, vegetables from Lanquais and Beaumont-du-Perigord, berries, pomegranates and honey also from Lanquais, lamb from Bayac, beef and beer from Beaumont, mushrooms from Saint Chamassy and of course whatever she finds in the abundant local markets of Issigeac, Lalinde and Monpazier.
