An exceptional location, for breakfast opposite the Lower Anjou Valleys.

The Ile Saint Aubin island for something to eat or drink, without taking the car

Accessible from sunny days, located below the Le Château des Forges hotel, Saint Aubin island is an ideal place for a walk in the middle of nowhere. Right after taking the ferry to cross the river, you will find the “Au Port de l’île” outdoor café, a rural and convivial location. A little further, on the hill overlooking the site, the “Cœur de l’île” offers brunches and Anjou specialities. These are served in the country setting of a renovated farm.
