The Way Forward - for food

The Way Forward




The future of catered chalets. http://www.delaterre.eu.com/#/ready-meals/4535646582 - photos from debbies site and the strawberry photo

We like freedom and choice which is why we think out of the box at La Source and do things a little differently.

If you are renting the whole of La Source, you can choose to self cater, 'meals on demand' (that means the meals are just delivered to the kitchen and you lay the table and wash up) or 'full service' (you just relax and let us take care of everything).
What's more, you can ask us to cook 1 night or every night!

3 course Meals on Demand are €25 per head
3 course Full Service Dinners are €35 per head

Here is an example of what we can provide. If you would like to choose, you can,.. or we can choose for you.

*We can do dinners for a minimum of 8 adults. Children can share.
