The Manoir Hovey is renowned as being the go-to destination to experience elegant, cozy moments, perfectly adapted to your preferences. Whether it’s for a short pause or for a weekend’s escape from your hectic lifestyle, Manoir Hovey invites you to discover its many attractive features surrounded by an amazing and totally serene setting.
When we think relaxation, our minds can easily visualize a spa day, and this, even when you’re just planning to spend a few hours at the Manoir. Nestled between the forest and the lake, the Manoir Spa invites you to truly reconnect with yourself, but also with nature. The thermal circuit is based on a harmonious warm-cold-rest ritual with its hot tub, cedar panelled dry sauna, a hammam exuding aromatic essences, a cold-water basin and a heated outdoor pool, open year-round. To unwind even more, offer yourself a care or a massage. Swedish massages, massages for pregnant women, dermaplaning, specialized treatments, manicures… Everything is carefully designed to offer you an immersive experience, conducive to letting go of stress and restoring your inner balance.
Of course, a stop at the restaurant Le Hatley is a must when you visit the Manoir. Each dish has its own signature story: that of chef Alexandre Vachon, who makes it a point to showcase the region’s terroir with finesse and authenticity. The discovery menu is, in fact, a great way to taste his unique and inspired creations.
For a more casual, but still equally refined experience, visit the inn’s bistro, Le Tap Room. Its warm ambiance and welcoming decor make it the perfect venue for a shared meal with loved ones. The menu changes with each new harvest and daily arrivals, showcasing freshly caught fish from the lake, grilled meat cuts, seasonal vegetables, and farmhouse cheeses.
No matter which venue you choose, both promise a memorable culinary experience that will surely delight your taste buds.
At the Manoir Hovey, you’re invited to disconnect through a range of outdoor activities. Nature enthusiasts will be delighted to hike along the verdant shores of Lake Massawippi or through the forest, serenaded by the many birds they’ll discover. Fishing adepts will also be thrilled to learn that the depths of the lake are the ideal habitat for grey, brown and rainbow trout, as well as perch, bass and pike fish species. And to extend your pleasure throughout the seasons, this activity is possible even in winter as you try your hand at ice fishing. Located only a few minutes from Mount Orford, staying at the Manoir will allow you to take advantage of all their outdoor activities: cycling, hiking, and even swimming in lake Stukely. Indeed, you’ll find plenty of ways to immerse yourself in the surrounding nature.
To extend your stay by reserving one of the elegant rooms or suites, where comfort and serenity beautifully come together. As soon as you arrive, we guarantee you’ll experience pure bliss! Indeed, these authentic and soothing cocoons offer total peace of mind. From the wide windows overlooking either the forest or the lake, you’ll feel in complete symbiosis with the surrounding nature. Furthermore, the Manoir was awarded two Michelin Keys, attesting to the warm and friendly hospitality and personalized services awaiting you here.
Their mission is clear: to create memorable experiences celebrating the cultural and natural heritage of our region. So, what are you waiting for to reserve your next stop or your next stay at the Manoir Hovey?
