A summer at Fairmont Le Château Montebello: luxury, relaxation, and discovery
Outdoor barbecue with breathtaking views
Among the simple and exquisite pleasures of summer, barbecuing holds a special place. And here, it takes on a gourmet dimension. The Château offers an outdoor BBQ on its terrace overlooking the Ottawa River, in a breathtaking setting. The menu? A four-course feast, served à la carte at your table.
The experience begins with a fresh and flavorful starter, followed by a fish and shrimp dish, a generous grill station, and a decadent dessert to finish it all off. A friendly atmosphere, exceptional views, and carefully prepared dishes: everything you need for a festive and delicious moment.
Outdoor brunch: a tradition revisited
Sunday brunches are a well-established tradition... and at Château Montebello, they take on a whole new dimension. On July 20, an outdoor brunch will be held on the terrace, offering spectacular views of the river.
Two services are offered: at 11 a.m. for early risers, and at 1:30 p.m. for those who prefer to take their time. On the menu: refined dishes, sweet treats, a chic and relaxed atmosphere... in short, an ideal way to enjoy the weekend in style. Reservations required at 819-423-3021 or via OpenTable.
Relaxing by the pool
Want to relax in the sun with a cocktail in hand or take a dip in a sparkling pool? The Château has a magnificent outdoor pool, perfect for hot summer days. The Le Riverain terrace, adjacent to the pool, offers light meals and refreshing drinks for a gourmet break between swims. It's the perfect setting to unwind from everyday life.
Bonfire parties
At dusk, when the air cools slightly, nothing beats a cozy campfire. Every evening, from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m., the Château's stables welcome visitors for a bonfire evening. A cozy atmosphere, dancing lights, and for those with a sweet tooth, s'mores available to order: the perfect way to end a busy day on a comforting note.
World-class golf
The 18-hole golf course at Montebello Castle, designed by Stanley Thompson, is one of the most renowned in the region. Nestled in the heart of nature, it offers an experience that is both stimulating and soothing. With golf cart rentals, a driving range, and the option to play only 9 holes, everything is in place for an experience tailored to everyone, whether you are a seasoned golfer or simply curious.
Mountain bikes for all skill levels
Cycling enthusiasts will be delighted to learn that a 20-kilometer network of mountain bike trails crisscrosses the area surrounding the Château.
