Escape the crowds and live the high life at this sleek, modern apartment located in the peaceful residential quarter of Issy-les-Moulineaux, just steps away from the left bank of the Seine River. People in the know choose to stay here for its tranquil, family-friendly locale and wide green spaces, including the charming island park of Ile Saint-Germain Park (less than ten minutes away on foot). There are also excellent transport connections to downtown Paris. Hop on the train, and you can be at the Eiffel Tower in just fifteen minutes - or grab a coffee to go and take an amble along the Seine, you'll be at the iron lady in fifty minutes flat.

Back at the apartment, we're fans of the crisp, white interiors and light-filled bedrooms, each with its own bathroom.

Explore the magic of Normandy from your base in Le Tréport, a quaint fishing town. This elegant apartment and its soft-toned interiors are reminiscent of another time, embodying the timeless charm of Northern France. 

Refined furniture and pretty touches make for a lovely abode – every detail echoes and celebrates the beauty of its surroundings. Whether you’re sipping your morning coffee on your small balcony, savouring a hot bath after a long day of exploring, or whipping up dinner in your well-equipped kitchen, there’s everything you could need to feel at home. Tucking into meals around the mid-century-style dining table is particularly lovely, with the French doors open to let the fresh sea air billow in.

Spend mornings taking a gentle walk along the canal and discover the town’s fishing history through its port, just 200 metres away. When you want to explore the historical centre, you’re a stone’s throw away from all the local shops, restaurants, historical sights, and more. But the best thing to do in Le Tréport is to simply appreciate the beautiful cliffs and cove beaches – hop on the funicular train to catch an immense view of the natural surroundings.

This chateau in Normandy is bursting with old-world charm. Built by the original owner in the 19th century as a wedding present for his wife, it has been lovingly restored in recent years. While historic features like the elegant façade, grand rooms and antique French floor tiles have been preserved, the basement has been converted into a haven for fun and relaxation. The curved brick rooms are now home to a cinema room, a pool table, and a fitness suite. Meanwhile upstairs retains its 19th-century splendour through antique furniture, original fireplaces, and oak panelled walls. 

Set within an 18-hectare estate, there are beautiful spots to while away the days. Relax on the lawn with a book or sip calvados on the charming château terrace. On sunny days, whip up lunch on the barbecue while the children have fun in the play area. There are over 300 apple and pear trees in the fruit orchard, and beautiful walking trails through the estate’s woodland, with sprawling views of Normandy countryside, which you can explore on foot or on the bikes at the house. 

The area is surrounded by picturesque villages and scenery. The historic town of Gournay-en-Bray is a five-minute drive away, where you can pick up local produce at the twice-weekly market for a picnic. The Forêt de Lyons can be reached in twenty minutes by car, where you can practise a range of outdoor adventures, or simply walk through the winding woodland trails.

We can see why this French country estate has been featured in a raft of interior design magazines. Inspired by mid-century modern architects, the layout, furnishings and finishes are not what you necessarily expect from these traditional buildings, but they complement them perfectly. There’s a main house and an attached barn, as well as two independent guest suites (one also has a sauna). Step into the gardens and you’ll find a wood-fired Nordic bath and a pétanque court. There’s also a greenhouse growing seasonal crops and an outdoor kitchen with a wood-fired pizza oven. Set in a small village within the Vexin Nature Reserve and just an hour from Paris, you’ll have plenty to see and do during your stay.

When you feel like exploring, there are six bikes available which are perfect for cycling through the forest or paying a trip to the village to pick up some local ingredients to cook on the barbecue. For a change of pace, take a drive to one of the nearby towns, where you can discover ancient architecture, wine shops and cafes. 

This home puts family time front and centre, with garden games and even a ping pong table on offer. When night falls, head indoors to cuddle up around the wood burner, or take a relaxing soak in the bath.

Fun prints and bright pops of colour create a lively yet relaxing ambience at this home in Mers-les-Bains. Located just 100 metres away from the beach, you'll be well-positioned to take in the fresh sea air and laid-back atmosphere of this charming seaside town. 

Soak up scenic sea views from the small balcony, which we think makes the perfect perching spot when sipping your morning coffee. With the option to cook u your own culinary masterpieces in a stylish setting, we can see why dining in may seem appealing here (especially with some produce from the local French farmer's market). However, if you fancy having some local delicacies cooked for you – the bars and restaurants of Mers-les-Bains are within strolling distance here too. 

Sea n' Soleil 

Situated on charming sea-front esplanade of Mers-les-Bain, this bright apartment will have you perfectly placed for spending sunny days down at the sandy beach and exploring the town's historic centre. Start the mornings with a cup of coffee on your private balcony, gazing at the Art Nouveau villas and 19th-century style buildings the neighbourhood is renowned for. 

Stepping back inside, you'll enjoy breakfast at the elegant dining table and relaxing on the stylish modular sofa as you plan the day ahead. Comfortable furnishings and lovingly curated decor makes the space warm and welcoming, so you can make yourself right at home. 

When it's time to head out, grab your bucket and spade, and hit the sandy beach for an afternoon of sunbathing and swimming, just a short stroll from your doorstep. When you're not soaking up the sun on the beach, the port of Treport is well worth a visit, with terraces, small guinguettes, craft markets and several restaurants to enjoy. 

To The Terrace

If you're fond of the work produced during the impressionist movement, a visit to Pontoise is essential, as a lot of the most prominent artists chose to base themselves in this picturesque corner of France. However, it's fair to say that some of the homes have progressed a little since Pissaro and Cézanne were plying their trade in the area – this address is a prime example.

There's something effortlessly stylish about the interior, dominated as it is by stark white walls, shiny tiling and chic furnishings. Add into the mix a kitchen designed with minimalist principles in mind and rows of tall windows that let in the amount of natural light that even the most demanding of landscape painters would be happy with, and you've got a home that feels fresh and contemporary.

To top it all off, guests are treated to a landscaped garden complete with flowerbeds and a table on which to enjoy feasts fresh off the barbecue as the sun goes down. If you need to buy ingredients, the centre of Pontoise takes around a quarter of an hour to reach on foot and also offers galleries and a cathedral. Paris is only an hour away on the train, too.

Wheelchair Access

Steeped in a rich heritage, this 19th-century chateau is surrounded by a picturesque private parkland with fabulous forest views, standing just 35 kilometres from the centre of Paris.

So you'll be pleased to know the home theatre and Sonos sound system are there to keep you entertained in the 21st century. 

Enjoy sublime meals, afternoon teas and appetisers at the alfresco dining areas overlooking the luscious greenery of the grounds. Outside you'll find plenty of lounge areas spread across the three-tiered garden, including recliner day beds and hammocks for kicking back after a day's adventures. 

Nearby, there is a prestigious golf course featuring a spa, indoor pool and tennis courts, or you can spend your days biking or exploring the walking trails of the local forestland, discovering the two lakes and an abundance of natural beauty. Why not set up some personalised day trips out to the likes of Paris, Monet's Gardens in Giverny, Chateau de Chantilly and even the vineyards of Champagne? The dedicated team at the chateau offers a discreet service and can assist you with any personalised activities. They'll also serve you breakfast each morning, and a private chef can also be arranged to prepare other meals on request.

Touch of Serenity 

Private Dryer

Located between Compiègne and Soissons, this beautiful home in Largny-sur-Automne is a quiet and unassuming retreat. Surrounded by stunning gardens, if ever there was a home that could be described as having a sunny disposition, this is it. With beautiful floral displays bordering the terrace, you may be reluctant to leave the outdoor space, but, step inside and you won’t be disappointed. The interior of this home is just as welcoming, and will instantly bring a smile to your face.

We love the stylish log burner in the main living area. Picture yourself on a cold winter night, tucked up on the sofa with the warmth radiating out into the room as the flame flickers before you. All you’ll need for complete relaxation is a glass of wine and a spot to put your feet up, and you’ll feel any stress just melt away. 

This home was made for socialising, with open-plan living, dining and kitchen areas giving plenty of space for your group to spill out into every room. When it comes to exploring the local area,  with everything from gardens, to castles, museums and amusement parks all on your doorstep, you’re spoilt for choice of things to do.

Carbon Monoxide Detector

You’ll find this home within walking distance of the famous Roland Garros Stadium and the Bois de Boulogne. For those keen to check out Paris’ cultural sights, catch the metro from the Boulogne Jean Jaurès station. With two living spaces – one for socialising and the other for hunkering down in front of a film – there is plenty of room for a group of four to relax. Just so you're aware, there’s no handrail on the stairs, which may cause difficulties for small children or those with limited mobility.

Peace Begins

Wine Cooler

Situated a stone's throw from Paris' historic Latin Quarter and Le Jardin du Luxembourg, this apartment is an ideal base for city retreaters. Sleeping up to four guests – two of whom will sleep on the living room sofa bed – this apartment is a lovely spot to share morning pastries and evening dinners with a charcuterie board and bottle of wine. Two sets of French doors open out to a Juliet balcony, though keep in mind that it’s only for standing and people-watching. This charming home is perfectly located near several of Paris' iconic landmarks, including the Panthéon and the Catacombs.

A Portrait of an Artist

Just steps from Bois de Boulogne Park, this apartment provides the perfect setting for a refreshing city break. You can also walk to the world-famous clay courts of Roland-Garros or take the nearby metro into the heart of Paris. Wherever you find yourself, this home has everything you could need to relax and share quality time together. Remote workers can choose from two desks, while families with young children will appreciate the children’s room and toys. The little balcony also delivers a sweet spot for a morning coffee or evening drinks. 

French Treasure

At first glance, you might find yourself wondering whether this is a home or a gallery. And while the art collection is impressive, you’ll also find the owners have created a cosy and comfortable base for an inspiring city stay. From here, you can enjoy views across Tour Saint-Jacques while relaxing on the little balcony. Each room has its own unique character and while it seems like the perfect adults-only escape, it’s also family-friendly with plenty to explore in the surroundings. Outside, stroll to the riverside or walk to the Louvre. You’ll also find Châtelet metro station is just a two-minute walk away. 

The Way of Art

Air Conditioning

Close to Parc Monceau and Place des Ternes, this lavish apartment is in the 17th arrondissement, neighbouring the luxury shopping quarter of the Champs Élysées. Plenty of metro stations in the area can whisk you across Paris in a matter of minutes. The tropical motif in the light-filled living room certainly caught our eye and the kitchen has everything you need for self-catering. This big bonus is that each comfortable bedroom opens up to the balcony, furnished with bistro tables for morning coffees. 

Parisian Flair

Close to buzzing Le Marais, this apartment is well-placed to explore Paris. The famous Bastille is within easy reach, while the metro is nearby when you're keen to see more of the city. Design-wise, the interiors take inspiration from India, with nods ranging from elephant curios to scenic wallpaper. The open-plan living area is the essence of chic, and though two guests will sleep on a sofa bed, we don't think you'll be short on space.

The Wooden Elephant

This bright and welcoming apartment can be found opposite Buttes Chaumont Park, offering wonderful views of the vast green space. Best of all, the views from the apartment stretch all the way across Paris – you can even see the Eiffel Tower. There’s a balcony at the front of the home as well as a terrace, but the views can be admired from the open-plan living and dining space too, thanks to the huge windows. There are plenty of bakeries, bars, shops and restaurants nearby, and you can easily explore the rest of Paris using the metro – Buttes Chaumont station is just a few metres away. 

Charming Parkside Haven

Step-Free Access

Single-Level Home

This stunning apartment can be found in the 7th arrondissement, a short walk from the Eiffel Tower. You don’t even need to leave the home to admire that most iconic of Parisian sights though – this home boasts incredible views of the Iron Lady. The views can be enjoyed from the long balcony, and through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the bright and attractive living and dining space. There are plenty of bars and restaurants nearby, but for evenings spent at home, you’ll find a well-equipped kitchen. 

Whispering Towers

Screaming Parisian chic with wooden flooring and moulded high ceilings, this apartment can be found in the vibrant 9th arrondissement. Still showcasing many of the original features, including a fireplace, this house might feel a little outdated. Even so, it's well-kept, comfortable and bright, thanks to the floor-to-ceiling windows. Location-wise, you're surrounded by Parisian cafes, quaint restaurants and galleries here. You also aren't too far from iconic sights like the Louvre and Palais Garnier. And with public transport close by, you'll be able to explore as much of Paris as you'd like.

The Gilded Parisian 

Sitting in this peaceful apartment, it’s hard to believe just how central it is. It’s located between Madeleine and Opera, close to Concorde, Opera Garnier, and Galeries Lafayette – you’re right in the heart of Paris here. Yet the apartment, housed in an attractive Art Deco building that was once a grand hotel, is remarkably tranquil. It’s a bright and welcoming home-from-home for a city break, the ideal spot for soothing downtime in between seeing the sights. Two guests will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living room, and space is at a premium – but for this location, that’s easily forgiven. 

L'Art Deco Hideaway

With views across the Parisian rooftops to the Eiffel Tower and beyond, it’s easy to see why this home made it into our collection. A seven-minute walk is all it takes and you can be gazing up at Paris’ most iconic landmark in person – just don’t forget to pop into some restaurants en route for some classic French cuisine. The home itself is cosy and comfortable, perfectly made for two. And although there’s no air conditioning here, there is a private balcony – just the spot for some fresh air as you sip a fine French wine. 

Charm of Grenelle

You'll find this apartment in the 6th arrondissement. Not only are you strolling distance from the shops, restaurants, and sidewalk cafes in Saint-Germain-des-Pré, but all the famous landmarks are just a quick metro ride away. When you're not out and about, make yourself at home in this light-filled pad. It's not the biggest (nor the most modern), but it's a fuss-free option for families and couples. There's a desk if you need to catch up on work and a sofa bed that can sleep one adult or two children. We love the character features most of all – from the large French windows to the Juliet balconies overlooking the typically Parisian courtyard.
