Domaine de Chouchene is a guesthouse in Qab Elias, in the Bekaa wine country, set in restored Lebanese houses from the 19th century, the main one about 150 years old. The Chouchene river runs through the property, and one of its draws is a Lebanese breakfast served beside the water. The restaurant covers the classics, from mezze, hummus and tabbouleh to grills, kebabs and desserts. Inside there is a common room with a fireplace, books and board games, and a small boutique sells clothing with personal shopping help. The estate also works as a wedding venue, and for active guests it organises hiking and climbing outings in the surrounding area. A playground makes it easy for families with young children.
