The place
Les Trois Tilleuls, Canada.
A vibrant, untamed natural setting.
Thirty minutes from Montreal, along the broad, placid Richelieu River in the heart of Quebec, the horizon seems to stretch out forever into the sky.
In autumn, the vast forests of maples and aspens turn to gold, before slumbering through the winter under a cottony blanket of snow. Springtime and summer are alive with the songs of birds, the buzzing of insects and the splashing of streams and waterfalls.
In the midst of this extravaganza of colors and the constant rushing murmur of the river, the Hostellerie Les Trois Tilleuls in Saint Marc sur Richelieu, a Relais et Châteaux hotel, offers its visitors the cozy warmth of a hundred-year old wooden building whose lovely furniture, paintings and antique decorative objects recount the birth of New France.
