Overview

1hr 10 min by car from Paris / 49 min by direct train. Welcome to Sonia & Guilhem’s impressive house in a Champagne-producing village!

AN EXTRAORDINARY GARDEN
On the edge of a Champagne-producing village, this 14th-century house (originally a water mill) opens onto a unique garden. Walk barefoot by the waterfall, explore a mysterious tower, collect fossils in the stream bed and admire Guilhem’s collection of ancient coins he found himself. Your hosts offer a warm welcome and will give you a souvenir photo taken in front of the waterfall. In fall/winter or bad weather, try your hand at making crêpes.

CHAMPAGNE, FRENCH CUISINE & WELCOMING HOSTS
Enjoy an aperitif with Champagne and appetizers, then savor a generous homemade French dinner: three courses, cheese, and coffee — all shared with your warm and welcoming hosts. Guilhem speaks English 7/10.
