Stevenson character house in Grez

This house is an absolute gem! A traditional house which has been beautifully restored and a little house in the courtyard with a bedroom and bathroom. Just be aware that in the main house you have to walk through a double bedroom to get to the twin bedroom which is no problem if you are all family! There is also a lovely garden. We loved walking down to the river which is a couple of minutes away to swim, kayak and paddle board. The boulanerie a minutes walk away is fabulous. It is easy to get into Paris (40 min by train from Fontainebleau-avon) We had a wonderful week here and would love to come back.

Beautiful old french house. The essential were clean (i.e. kitchen, bathroom s, bedding), it was just a bit dusty, with a few spiders webs. Great location.

We loved this property and had a wonderful week here. It's located in Grez-sur-Loing which is a quiet little village with a creative history as it was a favoured location for painters, writers and musicians. There is a 12th Century castle ruin which overlooks the clear waters of the Loing River and its medieval bridge (although it has been reconstructed over the years) and this is a 5 min walk from the property. The house itself is extremely comfortable and offers a very cool interior with a mix of contemporary and antique furniture and fixtures ranging from beautiful wonky old stone walls to a steel spiral staircase. There is plenty of room with comfy sofas, chairs and beds. The kitchen is well equipped with a high glass ceiling and also has a separate utility room. There is an upstairs shower room and ground floor bathroom. There is also an additional space across the courtyard in the shape of a tiny house with a small table and chairs, kettle, shower room and upstairs double bedroom. The courtyard garden is really sweet and completely private and quiet and there is a further lawn area beyond the wall if you need it. We really enjoyed staying here. Things to do - kayaking along the Loing with Apikopa - departs from the bridge, walking in the Fontainbleu Forest, visit the Fontainbleu Chateaux, day trip to Versailles and that's just what we did! Fontainbleu also has loads of restaurants, coffee shops and ice cream stalls and there is a yummy bakery and small grocery shop about 50m from the house. Enjoy!

The house was very spacious and full of character. It had everything we needed for our stay, including a beautiful garden. Close to many crags, and round the corner from a good boulangerie. We also rented the little house, which was very useful extra space with a shower.

This is a nice restful location with a lovely garden. I would just like to signal, though that the steep staircase makes it unsuitable for people with young children. Some of the rooms are not that well heated either which means it's not ideal in winter. Otherwise, a really nice place

We loved the house in Grez. The decor was very nice. the house is spacious and the garden is nice. The communication with Annick was very good. The village is small but Nice, the river is Nice in te summer and the bakery is around the corner. We went to Fontainebleau (15 minute drive) and Nemours (15 minute drive). Fontainebleau is a Nice city to shop and eat something. We enjoyed our stay very much!

This village house has everything you expect. It's very clean and has a very nice atmosphere. We had very nice weather and climbed on the boulders in the forrest of Fontainebleau, did horseback riding and swam in the river. Our dogs loved the cool courtyard. Thank you Annick for your warm welcome and great service.

Our stay at Annick’s place couldn’t have been more perfect. Her home is a tasteful combination of modern and old, with the charms of the old and comforts of the new. Spacious and tastefully decorated. She left a huge vase of fresh flowers on the dining room table, an indication of her generosity and care. She responded to any questions or concerns quickly and without fail. The village is so sweet, with an old medieval tower and bridge over a lake we swam with pleasure. There is a canal with a footpath nearby for running or biking. We took out children there to boulder in the forest and everything, including the town of Fontainbleau is 20-25 minutes drive away. We were very happy and already thinking about going back. Thank you Annick!
