"Arriving in Beaumont early evening after a long drive on a very hot day, we were glad we had reserved a table at this little hotel's restaurant. Through the front entrance door, there is an interesting-looking bar area and then a comfortable dining room - but we were pleased to be shown to a table on the shady flower- filled terrace at the rear of the hotel. Aperitifs of good Kir soon arrived plus some freshly- baked olive bread then an amuse-bouche of a delicious cold carrot & cumin soup. We chose from the cheapest (€17) menu and were not at all disappointed with the food that was delivered; especially appreciated was J's supreme of guinea-fowl in a filo wrapping but everything was good. Our server (I guessed it was the lady of the house) was friendly and helpful and tolerant of my rudimentary French. She recommended a nice rose wine from nearby Bergerac, reasonably priced and perfect for the evening. Later in the week we returned for more of M. Denance's tasty food, this time choosing from the €25 menu. This was even better than our first visit, the olive bread this time also had tasty lardons inside and Madame remembered which wine we had chosen earlier in the week. The food gras "mi-cuit" was good, the dessert of parfait glacé absolutely delicious but the main course was the star. During several visits to Perigord, I have eaten Confit de canard on countless occasions - but none was better than the ones we both enjoyed here. This restaurant is highly recommended and we shall certainly be eating there on our next visit to this attractive village."
