This twelfth-century chateau in the Belgian countryside is quite simply enormous. Not only does it sit within ten hectares of pretty private parkland, but it can also accommodate a whopping thirty-five guests across the building and its two wings.

With all of this size to play around with, the host has ensured that every guest will find something that will appeal to them. The parquet flooring, original panelling, parquet flooring and open fireplaces mean that the living rooms are wonderful spots to do nothing more but relax, while the garden, courtyards and dining terrace also offer somewhere equally pleasant to sit and enjoy the sunshine.

In addition to this, you'll find a recently built Finnish sauna in the home, plus a games room complete with a bar and billiards tables. If that gets you in the sporting mood, there's an all-weather tennis court on the grounds, as well as a private lake, which you can use for fishing, canoeing or even swimming.

The closest town is Ciney, which takes about five minutes to reach in the car and has a handful of shops and restaurants. A little further afield, there's everything from caves, Roman ruins and outdoor activities to keep you occupied.

Nestled within a charming street, moments from the 18th-century gilded and decorated Place Stanislas, this apartment offers an idyllic spot to explore Nancy.

The dual-concept living area is swathed in natural textures, rattan and wicker furnishings, and a bespoke tree wallpaper. Open up the doors off of the kitchen as you fire off some project notes at the elegant table before enjoying a flaky croissant in the private courtyard. This is a tranquil space, with a plump sofa for sharing a glass or two of locally-produced Gamay and a charming dining table for enjoying the produce you picked up from the local market. You’ll find the ambient lights in the bedroom set the tone for page-turning and restful slumbers.  

When you’re ready to explore, the city’s cultural and culinary highlights are all within walking distance. From ambling the gardens of Parc de la Pépinière to dining along the Meurthe riverbanks during the golden hour, you’re in an idyllic setting to experience the city.

You can never go wrong if you book a whole chateau, which is why Sezanne Pond is such a lovely place to gather all your loved ones. Among the many services provided by the lovely host team, the fact that you can get an English-speaking guide to take you around is one of our favourites, but we can't say that we didn't love the fact that we booked maid service and released even more time in our day to do absolutely nothing. As this home used to be a retirement home back int the day, it has a lift for the luggage, which is another one of the small details that Sezanne Pond does absolutely right. Of course you get the standard luxuries — a large private pool, antique furniture fit for nobility, huge gardens where you can walk and reflect, a salon with a grand piano and a pool table, lots if spots to relax and read, and more. Within a few minutes' drive, rustic towns await, and we hope you take some time to explore this beautifully historic landscape and bring some local wine back to your chateau. 

Sezanne Pond

Whether you’re looking for a restorative countryside escape or an action-packed adventure, this home invites you to experience the natural beauty of northern France. 

Filled with natural light and offering an abundance of space to relax and share quality time together, the owners have designed this rural haven to enrich daily living with warmth and ease. From slow mornings gathered around the kitchen table to golden hour drinks in the garden and cosy movie nights on the sofa, it’s easy to settle in and make this space your own.

Nestled in the quiet village of Gergny with easy access to the surrounding countryside, this is the ideal location to experience the rich diversity of Aisne. Cycling enthusiasts will love the close proximity to the Scandibérique route, while history lovers will be drawn to the castle of Guise (just 26km away). 

From hiking through the bucolic landscape of nearby Avesnois Regional Nature Park to admiring the Matisse Museum in Cateau-Cambrésis, you’ll leave feeling refreshed and inspired by the simple charm of French living. And when you’re ready to retreat, this home provides a wonderful sense of sanctuary – it’s the perfect setting for candlelit meals, beautiful local wine and heartwarming conversation.

Rising out of the Aisne countryside like a beacon of French heritage, this 18th-century home opens its doors to an unforgettable stay in the heart of northeast France. And with its location between Reims and Château-Thierry, you’ll find you’re in the perfect setting for idyllic views, long walks through lush forests and tours of the famed Champagne region. 

Set across two floors, the owners have thoughtfully restored this historic building to honour its past whilst adding a range of contemporary comforts. From the soft pastel tones and traditional features to the simple styling, every detail inspires a wonderful sense of calm and ease. So whether you’re here for an intimate celebration or a quiet retreat, this is the kind of space that transforms to suit the mood of the moment. 

Enjoy slow mornings sipping coffee by the fire, wander outside to bask in the fresh country air, raise a glass of locally sourced Champagne and savour candlelit meals around the table. However you choose to spend your time here, every moment promises to be enriched by the charm and character of this setting. 

From here, it’s just a short drive to the city of Fère en Tardenois where you’ll find local shops, while the region is brimming with opportunities for hiking, sightseeing, wine tasting and simply soaking in the magic of the French countryside.

We love this charming single-level holiday home because it encompasses the best of both worlds. Though it is situated near Nancy's centre, allowing guests to make the most of the varied shopping, dining, and cultural offerings therein, it also feels tranquil and secluded – due in part to the small wooded area at the rear of the property. There you will also find a seating area perfect for long summer evenings spent in the company of friends and family. 

While the home's exteriors have a traditional French aesthetic typical of the Alsace-Lorraine area, step inside and you'll find cool and versatile interiors – think funky furniture, design-forward wallpaper, and quirky artwork adorning the walls. One of our favourite features has got to be the sleek shower rooms. Finished in a chic floor-to-ceiling grey marble, lending the room an upscale if somewhat trendy industrial feel, this space is perfect for a bit of pampering before a day – or an evening – spent exploring the highlights of Nancy.

From the Palais Ducal with its archetypal fairytale vibes to the beautifully ornate Basilique Saint-Epvre or the popular Parc de la Pépinière and its fragrant rose garden, not to mention the wealth of cultural attractions including the National Opera and the Fine Arts Museum, there is so much to fall in love with in and around the historic centre of this city. Best of all, it’s all within easy reach, thanks to the excellent transport links around this home.

Enjoy the idyllic beauty of the French countryside with a stay at this family home located in the village of Vichel-Nanteuil, halfway between  Château-Thierry and Soissons. With sweeping fields, forests and vineyards all around, you’re in for a truly relaxing time. 

Arrive to find a warm and welcoming exterior, inviting you to step inside and make yourself at home. The open-plan living and dining area has plenty of room to kick back and relax – snuggle up for an evening of movies and French wine or step into the well-equipped kitchen to rustle up a delicious feast using fresh ingredients you’ll be able to pick up at the local farmers market. You can share your suppers at the dining table inside or out in the garden, where there’s also a barbecue oven to make those alfresco gatherings even more fun. 

Later, head up to the comfy bedrooms for a night of restful sleep and wake up feeling reinvigorated. Outside your home, you’ll be surrounded by picturesque nature walks and you can also take a barge ride on the Ourcq river. You may also choose to take a tour of the expansive vineyards and visit the Château-Thierry and the surrounding Champagne country. For a family day out, Disneyland Paris is located under an hour away by car.

If you’re looking for a French home with character, your search is over – this beautiful house has it in abundance. Bursting with bright colours, vaulted ceilings, wooden beams and exposed brickwork, there’s so much to love here. We particularly like the nod to nearby Guise Castle (known locally as Château-fort de Guise) and the history of this mediaeval town. Old and new mix effortlessly, with modern amenities sitting happily alongside a suit of armour and the Coat of Arms of the Ducs de Guise that adorns the wall.

If you don’t fancy visiting the castle for a guided tour or heading out on a local hiking trail, then fear not – there’s plenty to keep you occupied at home. Enjoy a games night with loved ones, with billiards, ping pong and a whole host of board games to choose from. Whatever you decide to do, this home is made for socialising, whether it’s up on the first floor where you can gather on the sofa or sitting at the kitchen island as the nominated cook for the evening rustles up a delicious dinner. With the scent of food drifting through the room and excited chatter filling the air, gather around your dining table, crack open a bottle of fine French wine, and tuck into your meal. Quality time with loved ones in a happy, charming home just can’t be beaten.
