In a park with 5ha lake, lots of toys/books/swing set, fresh eggs, Paris 80km

Special offers for longer stay.

Perfect for teleworking (fiber optic).

For children: swing set/slide (6 mos-12 yrs), toys, books.
Equipment: baby bed, high chair...

We created a cottage decorated with families in mind with lots of books, a modern fully equipped kitchen and bathroom...

Surroundings:
- Private lake (5 ha). Fishing allowed. No need for permit. Entire lake to yourself.
- Gardens with roses, lavenders
- Barbecue at the lake
- Bocce ball court, badminton, ping-pong
- Lots of toys for children.

In addition:
Access to a private garden (1hectare), 10 hens and their eggs...

Most important is our rating from our guests: 4.9 out of 5!
Comments from guests about their stay in our cottage (hundreds of guests in 10 years):
- "You will be impressed by Michele and Alain: kindness, international culture."
- "Cottage is spacious, clean, tastefully decorated, view on the garden and the private lake spectacular".
- "Children loved the garden, the ducks on the lake, the toys reserve"
- "All facilities are in very good shape. Good taste"
- "Perfect place to recharge batteries, we will come back"
- "Lovely cottage in the most picturesque setting"
- "Very hospitable hosts". "Welcoming and friendly hosts"

- "Lots to choose to visit: Fontainebleau, Troyes, Disney, Paris ... "
- "Lots of value for your money. Nicely situated with lots of green and nature"
- "we came for the 3rd time ..."

The cottage is only an hour's drive from Paris and Disneyland. It is also the perfect and quiet spot to discover the "Champagne road" (little villages, good restaurants, cellars), many castles (Fontainebleau, Vaux le Vicomte, La Motte Tilly), la Roseraie in Provins, Vezelay. Go by train to Paris from Provins if you want to avoid driving ... Paris is one hour by train.

The cottage is a mix of old and new, of nature, of art and other books, of swing/slide set/toys for children, bocce ball, fishing, ping pong, jogging around the lake.....
... Our objective is to continue to improve. We love to spend time with our guests from Argentina to Scandinavia, from Germany to California, from Belgium, the UK, The Netherlands and of course Paris.

First holiday in France
Our stay was just perfect. The cottage is in a really small rural village. The cottage is beautiful with everything you need and the garden looks down to the lake. The lake is perfect for some quiet relaxation time with a footpath all around. My husband is a keen carp man and was not disappointed with carp and bream and a personal best being broken. Alain and Michele thank you for your hospitality and our lovely stay. Visiting local Provins regularly for supplies and a good walk around a real pleasure. Fontainebleau was amazing and the recommendation of the champagne trail very worthwhile.

Really well maintained cottage. A particularly stunning master bedroom.
A wonderful holiday in a beautiful place. We loved Provins, what an unspoilt gem. Loved cycling and running around the lake at the cottage. Cycling some of the Champagne trail was fab. As ever in France we enjoyed great bread, Brie, pastries and champagne. The children loved the Aquatic Centre in Provins and the knight show at the foot of the walls. Trips to Disneyland and Paris were also highlights. Coming back to quality and spacious accommodation every night was wonderful. We loved the tasteful decor in the cottage.

Being closed to nature with very kind hosts
Enjoyed a lovely short stay at Michele and Alain’s. One of the most amazing spot at only one hour and half from Paris, quite we advise you to go here for a good break from city wildlife into relaxing nature. A lovely stylish house with everything you need to feel at home. A beautiful human experience with caring, open and very kind hosts.

Un écrin de verdure idéal pour se ressourcer en famille, à proximité de Paris. Entre l'étang et ses oies, l'immense jardin équipé de multiples jeux pour enfants, les livres et jouets à disposition, c'est le lieu parfait pour profiter de moments en famille. Un grand merci aux propriétaires, Alain et Michèle, très accueillants. Une adresse à ne surtout pas rater

Schönes altes Cottage auf dem Land
Wir hatten ein paar entspannte Tage hier. Die Vermieter sind ausgesprochen freundlich. Schicke alte Möbel im Haus. Großer Garten mit See (nicht zum Baden). Viele Spielmöglichkeiten für Kinder. Mitten auf dem Land, Provins als nächste Stadt ist knapp 15 Minuten mit dem Auto entfernt. Danke für die Gastfreundlichkeit!

Lovely cottage, offers everything you need
Amazing place to stay. Everything we needed was there. Do keep in mind that it is quite isolated. You need to drive for even getting some bread. It is very peacefull though. Lot’s of great places to visit within an hour’s drive (Disney, Val d’Europe, Fontainebleau) and Provins is about 15 minutes away. We loved it here and highly recommend this cottage. Michelle and Alain are very kind and always willing to help.

Beste Erholung in ruhiger Lage, kurze Wege zu interessanten Zielen (Paris, Disneyland, etc.)
Ehepaar (70, 68) mit Enkeln (18,15). Wir waren zwei Wochen in diesem Cottage und fuhren mit voller Zufriedenheit nachhause. Die überaus freundlichen und sympathischen Vermieter hatten sich liebevoll um uns gekümmert. Das sehr schöne und gepflegte Anwesen (Haus und Garten) in ruhiger Lage bietet neben einer Einrichtung mit antiken Möbeln moderne Ausstattung in Küche und Bad - eine ansprechende Kombination. Zu jeder Zeit waren die in unmittelbarer Nähe wohnenden Vermieter ansprechbar für alle auftretenden Fragen. In relativ kurzen Zeiten sind interessante Ziele erreichbar (Paris 80 km mit Bus, Zug, Auto, Versailles, Troyes, Reims, Fontainebleau, Épernay, Sens, etc). In diesem Haus hat man eine Kombination von Ruhe und Ausflugsmöglichkeiten. Ausreichender Internetzugang ist vorhanden, allerdings kein deutsches TV-Programm. Alles in allem war der Aufenthalt in diesem Ferienhaus perfekt sowohl für uns Ältere als auch für die jungen Leute. Wir haben uns in jeder Hinsicht wohlgefühlt und können dieses Objekt ohne Bedenken weiterempfehlen. Besonders an das sehr nette Vermieter-Ehepaar werden wir immer gerne zurückdenken.

Instant détente et au calme a la campagne
Repos, détente, soleil et superbe vue sur l'étang. Endroit parfait pour les enfants surtout pour decouvrir un coin de nature. L'étang au bout du jardin permet de découvrir canards, oies et ragondins. Jardins tres bien entretenus tout comme la maison tout équipée. Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir! Propriétaires tres sympathique, arrangeant et disponible.

La maison est décorée avec goût, bien chauffée, il y a des livres partout dans la maison pour ne pas s'ennuyer :) Il y a un petit lac au fond du jardin. La maison est au calme, on entend au loin les canards et oies qui s'agitent le matin, Pour les parisiens que nous sommes, c'est un vrai dépaysement! Enfin, Michele et Alain sont des hôtes attentionnés, disponibles et très sympathiques. Tout y est pour passer un agréable weekend. Je vous recommande ce cottage sans réserve!
