Some places carry the soul of an entire village. The Pub de la Contrée, nestled in the heart of Buckland at the foot of Massif du Sud Regional Park, is one of them. It is far more than a place to enjoy a beer — it is a gathering spot, a place where you feel immediately at ease. Everything here is house-made, locally sourced and served with pride. An address we love introducing to guests passing through Bellechasse.
