Des promenades sur le terrain du gîte et dans la campagne environnante. Beaucoup de calme reposant dans ce gîte.
Une journée agréable à Fontainebleau pour visiter son magnifique château et ses jardins.
Un petit tour à Bourdelle pour son jardin.
Seul petit bémol : l'escalier menant aux chambres...

Wir hatten einen schönen Urlaub. Die Wohnung ist sehr schön eingerichtet und mit allem nötigen ausgestattet.
Es gibt ein riesiges Grundstück mit Hühnern,Enten ,Tennisplatz...
Das Vermieterehepaar ist sehr gastfreundlich und entspannt.
Un lieux idyllique avec un propriétaire super sympa
La propriété est idyllique avec une rivière très peu profonde (très utile pour les enfants), un terrain de tennis, un terrain de foot et un terrain de volley... l'apéritif le soir au bord de la rivière est très sympa sans compter la région avec de nombreuses activités

merci Audric pour vos commentaires agréables ; cela nous motive à faire encore mieux pour que nos hôtes gardent un bon souvenir de leur séjour chez nous ; revenez quand vous voulez, ce sera un plaisir de vous revoir.
Tout s'est très bien passé malgré une mauvaise météo. Maison fonctionnelle, terrain magnifique pour des balades d'automne.
Petit hic, très froid dans la maison. surtout les différences de temperature entre la cuisine et le salon.
donc, en été, ca doit etre parfait.
en hiver, attention.
Merci beauocup.
Sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite, aber nie aufdringliche Vermieter. Für Kinder auch wegen des parkähnlichen Gartens sehr gut geeignet, nur bei den Kleinsten muss man wegen des Bachs (Highlight Ruderboot!) vielleicht etwas aufpassen. Zum Grundstück gehören drei Wohnungen, Privatsphäre ist aber gewährleistet.
Nous avons apprécié le confort du gîte (très bien équipé niveau électroménager notamment) ainsi que son immense jardin qui offre un cadre très agréable et reposant.
Un grand merci à Pierre et Monique nos hôtes pour leur accueil et leurs bonnes adresses !
Nous reviendrons avec plaisir.

merci pour vos commentaires encourageants ; partager ces lieux que nous aimons est l'une de nos principales motivations.
Très agréable location dans un très bel environnement
Dans un ensemble de 3 gîtes, logement très bien équipé, très confortable, bénéficiant d'un grand parc, dans un endroit pittoresque avec de très nombreuses randonnées à proximité (rivière à 2 pas, joli village, au calme).
This is a delightful, very well equipped property, set in over 2 acres, giving plenty of space to relax. Pierre is the perfect host. With a tennis court and areas to play volleyball, petanque and football if you wish, keeping active is easy and convenient. It's a short cycle or walk to the bakery, with easy access to the nearest supermarket. There are several lovely countryside walks to enjoy and numerous pretty villages and towns to visit within easy reach by car. Travelling from the UK could not be simpler as the location is only some 4 hours from Calais.

Un petit bout de campagne comme on les aime.
Superbe séjour dans une maison très agréable, bien équipée et proche de toutes commodités.
Cette belle propriété est très bien entretenue et il y fait bon vivre. Les espaces extérieurs sont parfaits, particulièrement avec des enfants. Il y a tout ce qui faut pour s’amuser tennis , volley , foot, petanque, sans oublier le ruisseau et d’autres surprises...
Ce lieu regorge de charme pour le plus grand plaisir des petits et des grands....
Un petit mot pour l’accueil. Pierre et Monique sont des hôtes vraiment charmants et très attentionnés. Nous sommes ravis d’avoir fait leur connaissance. Nous reviendrons c’est promis.
Une jolie petite maison dans ne magnifique propriété. La propriété est constituée de 3 maisons, nous étions dans la plus petite, parfaite pour une famille de 4 ou 5 personnes. Les propriétaires sont extrêmement attentifs à leurs hôtes. Nous avons passé un excellent séjour.

Merci Stéphanie pour votre gentil message ; vous avez été des hôtes agréables et respectueux des règles et de lieux ; Monique et moi serions heureux de vous revoir.
Für uns (Familie mit 2 Kindern) war die Lage der Ferienwohnung Perfekt.
Speziell die Kinder haben sich immer darauf gefreut Nachmittags noch ein bisschen Tennis zu spielen, aber vor allem die tollen Tips von Pierre, wie Chateau de Vaux-le-Vicomte (anstatt Versais), Chateau de Blandy-les-tours oder auch Moret sur-Loing...haben uns sehr geholfen unseren Aufenthalt toll zu gestallten. Vielen Dank dafür noch mal an Pierre .
We have had a great time in this house. The owner is honest and kind.
The property is clean and in a safe neighborhood. Ground floor is air-conditioned. First floor is not and usually it is okay unless there is an unexpected heat wave like what we have had.
Our kids enjoyed playing close to the river and feeding hens and ducks.
The town has no mobile net and It was difficult for us to get to the property easily. I was not given the exact location of the property in advance.
Upon check in we were told that utility is not inclusive. The owner would calculate how much did we consume then we have to pay for electricity. In addition, cleaning fees (40 euros) didn't include the cleaning of towels. The owner would calculate how many towel did I use then charge me 4 euro for each towel as an additional cleaning fee.
In summary, we enjoyed our stay and I recommend this property for those who would like to have a quite and safe place in country-side.

Herrliches Grundstück
Bis auf einen leichten Schmierfilm auf den Küchenutensilien war alles sehr sauber, funktionsfähig und gepflegt. Der Vermieter war sehr nett, hilfsbereit und zuverlässig. Besonders gefreut haben sich die Kinder über den Nachwuchs der Hausenten. Ein sehr schönes Domizil.

Peaceful stay, good facilities, lovely environment and really helpful owner.
Everything we needed for our holiday, in terms of setting, equipment, help and advice from the owner and lovely grounds to explore and enjoy. We had a relaxing week here, enjoying the peace and quiet, making friends with the neighbours (lovely German family in the next door property, plus free-range chickens and ducks in the grounds!), trying out the boat on the river, exploring the local area (with really helpful advice from Pierre), visiting Paris for the day by train - what more could we want from a week away?

A lovely property in a lovely rural area.
Our family of fived stayed in this property for one week. It was clean, tidy and in a lovely location. The children (aged 14, 13 and 9) loved the very large gardens and playing in the small river. Whilst in a very rural location the property is conveniently located for a day trip into paris via train. There is also plenty to explore in the local area including forests, castles and lakes for swimming. Overall we had a lovely time and felt very welcomed by our host.

Prima gite.
We hebben een buitengewoon prettig verblijf gehad in Paley. Een ruime woning, van alle gemakken voorzien. Heel grote tuin, wat bij mooi weer erg leuk is. De kippen die daarin rondliepen waren een dagelijks uitje voor de kinderen. De eigenaar, Pierre Vergnet, is goed bereikbaar, vriendelijk en behulpzaam.

Charming modern gîte with a beautiful garden and tennis court at a pleasant and quiet location
What a wonderful place to spend our summer holidays!
We booked Gîte De l'Orvanne, which is the smaller of the two gîtes under the same roof, and stayed there for two weeks. Pierre made us feel very welcome at our arrival and was happy to advise us at any time with tips for excursions and restaurants.
The gîte is nice and clean and very comfortable. It is a charming 200 year old farm that has been modernized completely in a tasteful modern style. It has modern equipment like basin mixer taps, a Nespresso coffee maker, satellite tv and a washing machine.
We will surely remember the beautiful garden. It is exceptionally large and has an interesting variety of trees. Throughout the day the garden offered lots of nice sunny and shadowy spots. The garden is bordered by the Lunain river -- we really enjoyed rowing the boat that is available to the guests of both gîtes. We also spent a lot of time on the private tennis court.
Paris is just over an hour's drive away (90 km). We also enjoyed visiting the towns of Fontainebleau (30 km) and Sens (40 km), the palace of Vaux-le-Vicomte (50 km), Provins (60 km) and the Parc des Félins (70 km). There is very little to do in the village of Paley itself, except perhaps some nice walking trails, but there is plenty of beautiful nature in the surroundings.
We would certainly recommend Gîte De l'Orvanne to anyone looking for a relaxing and comfortable stay in France.

Dear Berber
Your nice comments make us happy ; we have renewed this property because we love this country, old authentic houses and because we like to share that with other people who appreciate the same things ; I was born in a farm and I like nature and animals, that why you saw ducks, hens, chickens ; Monique used to be chief purser on Air France planes and likes welcoming people and she manages the inside of the houses with her heart
It was a real pleasure to spend those two weeks with you and your family and we hope to meet you again in Paley. warm and kind regards; Monique and Pierre
