About this house rental
The property is a charming free-standing 18th century small house with a south facing terrace and it's own private 100m² garden. It is situated in the extensive and secluded grounds of the owner's principal residence which was built for King Louis' head groom of the stables at Versailles.
The accommodation covers 40m² and comprises a living room and fully fitted kitchen downstairs, with a double bedroom and en-suite bathroom upstairs, and has south and west-facing windows looking out over the main grounds. Electric heating (radiators and water) is included, as are telephone (excluding calls to cell phones) and high-speed Internet access.
Secure off-street parking is available.
The village of St Nom la Breteche has its own supermarkets, boulangeries, restaurants, chemist, banks, post office and tennis courts.
Main line trains to Paris (St Lazare in the North or Montparnasse in the South) are close by.
Please note that during July and August we cannot accept bookings of less than two weeks.
The area is well known for it's connections with artists, especially the Impressionists, including Renoir and Monet. Auvers sur Oise, where Van Gogh produced most of his paintings under the treatment of Dr Gachet, is within 20 mins drive. Giverny, Monet's home and gardens are 45 mins drive and Barbizon is 1hr away.
Debussy's birthplace and museum are in nearby St Germain en Laye, easily reached in 20 mins. The chateau was the home of the exiled Stuarts from 1688 until the Revolution. There are many other chateaus of interest nearby such as Versailles, 20 mins by car, Maison Laffitte, Maintenon, Fontainebleau and Vaux le Viscomte.
Further afield - but great for a day trip - are the Somme battlefields, the Armistice Clearing at Compiegne, Normandy and the coastal towns of Honfleur, Deauville, Etretat, the Somme Bay and estuary and it's extensive bird reserve plus the historic walled towns of St Valery and Montreuil sur Mer.
For the sporty there are three golf courses within 5 minutes drive, including the world-renowned St Nom la Breteche course. Also there are tennis courts opposite and numerous paths and cycle tracks in the local forest. The famous racecourses of Longchamps and Chantilly are both not far.
Then of course there is everything that Paris has to offer, which is easily reached by train or car.....

A wonderfully peaceful retreat in an exquisite garden location !
Very friendly, musical hosts with heaps of local knowledge provided us with a unique and history-drenched holiday home from which to explore the region…
Convenient for the splendid palace and gardens of Versailles, lovely St Germaine-en-Laye, Claude Monet’s magical gardens, house & studio at Giverny, the Impressionist trail along the Seine at Chatou, le Corbusier’s iconic Villa Savoye etc
Next time we shall visit Auvers to see where Vincent Van Gogh stayed and spend more time exploring the gorgeous Normandy countryside.
Thank you Sue and Steve for being such welcoming hosts - and for singing an impromtu rendition of “Happy Birthday” with the choir x
