The history of the Manoir reaches back before World War I. In 1912, the notary Achille A. Leduc ordered the building’s construction for him and his soon-to-be wife. The couple went on to raise eight children there.
After serving as a family home for nearly seven decades, this majestic abode was given new life in 1983 when it was acquired by Yvon Beaulieu and Clairette Biron, two food lovers already renowned for their famous dinner shows featuring a French-inspired menu. They had a clear vision for the property: to open an upscale restaurant in the town of Bécancour. They achieved this with the launch of the Manoir Bécancourt – spelled with a “t” to pay tribute to the original spelling of the municipality when it was founded in 1965.
The Manoir entered a new era in 2004 when Jasmine Hébert, a graduate of the hotel management program at Collège Mérici in Québec with extensive work experience in Europe, took over the business from her parents. With her experience and passion, she took the Manoir to the next level. Today, the Manoir offers its guests a country ambiance, 9 unique rooms, a restaurant well worth the visit and a range of quality services. Jasmine is also a trained sommelier and pleased to assist with choosing the perfect wine from the Manoir cellar to go with your meal.
