What To Expect
Just an hour from Paris, escape to this charming 17th-century stone house in a serene hamlet by the river. Cosima and Frédéric warmly welcome you, offering a perfect couple or family-friendly retreat.
Explore the house’s timeless interiors and stroll through its lush bamboo garden with 50 species. Uncover WWII shrapnel and WWI graffiti inside, immersing yourself in history.
Enjoy a delightful French lunch with wine, cheese, and coffee, paired with an apéritif and appetizers (no pre-set menu, let yourself be surprised!). The French gastronomic meal is recognized as UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. Taste it with our hosts !
After lunch, wander with your hosts along the river, passing by medieval ruins and Cosima’s art studio.
A truly authentic experience with ordinary citizens: your hosts are not hospitality nor travel profesionals. Frédéric is a retired researcher and Cosima is an artist and retired tour guide.
