Maison bourgeoise FONTAINEBLEAU, 70 km sud Paris

Thanks to you, Celine and Eric, for inviting us into your beautifull french home. All we could think of for a family vacation (8 adults and a child) was there - fully equipped kitchen including an american freezer (ice cubes - it was very hot at the time we were there) - three floors, lots of space and house cleaning twice a week - not to be forgotten: the tiny pool in the garden was really appreciated by all and was the relaxation place for both adults and the child. Everything worked well.

Beautiful and comfortable house. Fully equipped. 30-40 min walk to Insead, 20-25 min walk to heart of town/castle. 15 min walk to nearest supermarket. Car or bike necessary.

This beautiful property which very successfully marries traditional French style with modern day living, is within easy walking distance of the centre of Fontainebleau.We took the train into Paris twice during our stay and the journey was very straightforward and stress free. The pool is a real bonus but unfortunately the weather wasn't too kind to us. The only downside that I can think of is that I have come away with a severe case of house envy!!!

Vi var 6 voksne og 4 små børn. Blandet klatring og afslapning. 5 min i bil til indkøb (Carrefour). Pænt rent og alt i køkken og god plads med en etage til hver familie med eget bad og toilet.

We enjoyed a wonderful week at this stunning property. The Owners were so accommodating and everything in the house was in great working order and as described. The beds were made up with fresh linen and we were provided with towels not only for use after bathing but also for use around the lovely pool.

The kitchen was well equipped for cooking and BBQ’s my only comment would be perhaps to provide a few more plastic drinking cups for use around the pool as we were nervous to break any of the glasses.

Our children thoroughly enjoyed their stay at this property, exploring the gardens, pool, tree house and climbing wall.

The property was well located for access into Paris by either car or Train and was also well situated for a trip to Versailles.

Fontainebleau itself is a lovely town and we enjoyed a couple of meals out and some good shopping although being August a lot of the shops were closed.

A highlight of the week was a trip to Fontainebleau Castle which in our opinion was far more interesting than Versailles and well worth a visit.

I cannot recommend this property highly enough and would definitely revisit.
