Country-style dining is definitely very trendy these days. After all, what could be finer than eating a delicious meal directly at a farm? To make your experience even more exceptional, why not add some activities and, perhaps, an overnight stay in a nearby accommodation? Here are our suggestions!
With its incomparable view of the neighbouring Mount Pinnacle, Les Cocagnes’s country-style table invites you to enjoy an intimate and delicious gastronomic experience. It all begins with a glass of wine, followed by a tour of the site and its produce farms. You’ll then head to the Pergola for an al fresco dinner, where every evening a different chef will delight you with creations inspired by the garden as well as the region’s producers. The evening ends with a pleasant moment around the fire... A great agrotourism project to discover!
If you’ve opted for the food and wine pairing package at Les Cocagnes, you’ll no doubt have a good idea of what the region’s winemakers are capable of. Indeed, by taking the Route des Vins Brome-Missisquoi, you’ll discover more than 20 vineyards! Near Frelighsburg, the closet wineries are Val Caudalies, Clos Saragnat and Domaine du Ridge. Psst... in summer, the Route des vins Brome-Missisquoi hosts a lively program of musical evenings with Escale sur La Route des vins!
Known as one of the most beautiful villages in Québec, Frelighsburg’s architectural charm is sure to impress! On the rue Principale, the Oneka boutique is the ideal place to stock up on all kinds of organic personal care products. Then, every Saturday from June to October, the town is all a buzz around its farmer’s market. Local artisans and producers come together to offer you the very best of their know-how. Speaking of local gastronomy, the Beat & Betterave nanobrewery is definitely not to be missed on your visit here!
Did you know that the orchard Au Cœur de la Pomme in Frelighsburg makes artisanal cider vinegar and many other apple-based products? The vinegar factory is open to visitors, and in autumn you can go pick your own apples or even have a picnic on the shores of the Rivière aux Brochets. And for even more fruit of all kinds, Paradis des Fruits in Dunham is less than 10 minutes from Les Cocagnes restaurant!
Coincidence? Perhaps, but La Doyenne des Vignes cycling route passes right in front of Les Cocagnes. So, for cycling enthusiasts, it’s the perfect opportunity to head out on two wheels and explore this itinerary which holds as many challenges as breathtaking landscapes! The circuit runs right through the heart of Brome-Missisquoi’s wine region and promises some remarkable points of view, including those found on the mythical Chemin Saint-Armand.
On your way from either Montréal or Sherbrooke to the Table Champêtre Les Cocagnes, the road will take you through the charming Cœur Villageois of Dunham. Steeped in an Anglo-Saxon architectural heritage, Dunham’s built heritage has been reinvented to house restaurants, a microbrewery and even a vineyard! All in the heart of the town. So whether it’s to take in the sights or enjoy a bite to eat, you’ll always find a good reason to stop and enjoy a stroll down the town’s main street!
As close as you can get to Les Cocagnes, the Camping Écologique de Frelighsburg is the perfect campground to set up your tent or park your RV for the night. Nestled in a wooded valley where the Rivière aux Brochets meanders through the landscape, the atmosphere is truly peaceful!
Camping isn’t one of your usual options? Just as close to the Table Champêtre is La Villa du Vignoble. Located in the heart of Dunham, the Vignoble Clos Ste-Croix offers two comfortable accommodation possibilities in an enchanting setting.
Another tasty option for your overnight stay is the Domaine de la Colline aux Bleuets, which has its own lodging offer with a superb view of the Appalachian Mountains! Enhance your stay with a tour of the domain and pick-your-own blueberries to take back home with you.
