Le Bistrot du Héron

In Conques-en-Rouergue, a village classified as “one of France’s most beautiful villages” in Aveyron’s Dourdou valley, chefs Émilie and Thomas welcome you to their home, the Moulin de Cambelong, an enchanting establishment rooted in the history of an ancient mill.

Carefully renovated, it combines the authenticity of its past with elegant modernity. Each room reveals a unique atmosphere, blending comfort and refined aesthetics. The surrounding nature, with the murmur of the river visible from every room and the lush greenery, awakens the senses.

Behind the stoves, Émilie and Thomas offer instinctive gourmet cuisine, highlighting local, seasonal produce. The chef-owners adopt an ecological approach, favoring products from organic farming or sustainable fisheries. They also reduce waste, actively recycle and pay attention to the carbon footprint of the ingredients they choose. This approach is in line with their desire to offer a culinary experience that respects the environment while delivering exceptional quality.

Numerous nearby activities are available: visit the Basilica of Conques, a Unesco World Heritage site
hiking, cycling and other outdoor activities.

Le Moulin de Cambelong is also located on the Pilgrim’s Way to Santiago de Compostela, ideal for a pleasant rest before resuming your pilgrimage.
