Holiday house with pretty garden set in a beautiful medieval village, Chateau-Landon - Easy reach of Paris, Fontainebleau, Eurodisney. Reviews

This review is a bit late as we stayed in this glorious property for 2 weeks in

July 2013. (The date section above didn't go back that far, but had to be completed) We had decided to take our two children to disneyland and to visit

Paris. After much research and being tied to peak holiday season we decided that we would make a 4 day trip into a 2 week holiday. We wanted to find somewhere within travelling distance to Paris but yet peaceful. This property ticked all the boxes.

Claude and jenny were helpful from the start, this was our first booking through

Owners direct and they made everything so simple.

We arrived following a long drive from Northern Ireland. The gite was everything we imagined and more. We felt at home immediately. Secure parking and beautiful garden. The town of Chateau Landon is tranquil and a perfect base for visiting such a beautiful part of France. Everything you need is within walking distance. The gite is so well equiped and wonderful for children. The kids loved the games room, bikes and back garden. The rooms were clean and airy and the kitchen is fully equiped, mornings with the shutters open looking out the back is truely peaceful.

Jenny and Claude provided loads of maps and information leaflets and the guide to the gite was very informative. There is so much to do in the local area. Fontainebleau and the chateau, the beautiful Barbizon, the medevil town of Provin and Chateau Vaux le Vicomte. Walking and climing rocks in the forest. You can get the train direct to Paris from Souppes sur Loing and there is also a lovely market there. There are lovely lakes to swim. And not forgetting disneyland. The town Chateau Landon has a beautiful park and river, my kids still talk about bastile day, playing traditional wooden games in the park and that evening standing on the ramparts watching the firework displays in all the surrounding towns and villiages.

I know we only scrapped the surface of this part of France, there is so much more to see and do. I would highly recommend staying in this lovely gite in a beautuful part of the world. I am so sorry it has taken so long to write a review, thank you for letting us stay in your lovely home.
