A family home and charming 4-star hotel nestled in the heart of the Brière marshes, just a few kilometers from the famous seaside town of La Baule.
La Mare aux Oiseaux is a house created and inhabited by Michelin-starred chef Éric Guérin, a living place where hospitality, creativity and kindness come together in harmony with nature.
Surrounded by water, birds and changing light, the house reflects the spirit of the marshlands: peaceful, vibrant and deeply connected to the living world. Every season transforms the landscape, inspiring both our cuisine and the experience we offer our guests.
Our Michelin-starred restaurant lives to the rhythm of local producers, fishermen, gardeners and artisans, telling the story of a territory we deeply love. Each plate is an invitation to discover the soul of Brière through taste, emotion and simplicity.
La Mare aux Oiseaux is more than a restaurant or a hotel — it is a true maison de vie, a place where people come to slow down, reconnect and share meaningful moments.
The La Mare aux Oiseaux team is one big family. There is no separation between departments here; kitchen, dining room, hotel and garden all work hand in hand for the radiance of the house and the environment surrounding it.
We believe in transmission, mutual respect, teamwork and personal growth. Our philosophy is simple: everyone should be able to find their own path here, while contributing to a collective adventure driven by passion, generosity and love for our craft.
