Discover The Vale

The Vale combines plantation history with a specific dining destination. A sugar factory was established early on the Vale plantation; the village is also home to Le Domaine, a family-run restaurant owned by Mannen and Madevi. This brings historical traces and a named restaurant offering together. When choosing where to stay, consider whether you are most interested in the plantation’s history, dining, or both.

Plantation and temple: two historical traces

A sugar factory was established early on the Vale plantation and remained in operation for a long time. Its long operating history and the ruined chimney of the former factory mark different phases: its earlier operation and the later state of the site. For travellers interested in cultural history, this creates a tangible connection between a place, its former use and traces of its past.

The plantation’s history also includes a small Tamil temple near the ruined chimney of the former sugar factory. It bears witness to the early establishment of Indian deities on the plantation. Together with the history of the sugar factory, the temple offers another perspective on the plantation: alongside its economic use, it also draws attention to the early religious presence of Indian deities. Travellers who take historical themes into account when choosing a destination will find two distinct points of interest here, rather than just one broad historical theme.

Le Domaine and its menu

Le Domaine restaurant in The Vale is run by Mannen and Madevi and is a family business. Dishes on offer include prawns, crispy squid, rock lobster and fresh fish. The selection gives a specific insight into this restaurant’s menu and offers a different focus from the plantation’s historical themes. Ownership details and the menu may change. If a particular dish is important to your plans, check the current menu in advance.
