Comfortable home in a beautiful setting
My family and I just returned from an absolutely wonderful stay at Ferme de Pontaly! Cécile and Alexandre are fantastic hosts - always available to answer all of your questions and making sure you are always comfortable. We live in a busy suburb of Washington DC and it was nice to get away and relax in the French countryside. We enjoyed waking up every morning to the sound of chickens and horses. We also enjoyed our farm tour with Cécile, and talking with her about their organic farming practices, and learning about the history of the land since they are very near Versailles. The cottage is also just a short distance away from train stations that will take you right into Paris for sightseeing. The cottage itself is just as described in the listing - clean and comfortable - with everything you need for an enjoyable stay. My daughter is an equestrian and she was able to book a ride in the countryside with the equestrian center next door. Otherwise, there are miles of hiking trails around the property for lovely evening or morning walks. We highly recommend booking a stay here!

Wonderful farm-stay experience super close to Paris!
The Ferme de Pontaly is a lovely property very close to Paris with miles of walking/running/biking trails along the picturesque fields and pastures. Children will love visiting the horses, sheep, goats and chickens. The "cottage" is a sweet, small, clean and functional abode, perfect for a family of four. The kitchen has everything you need to cook and there is a BBQ outback for grilling. The large garden, which centers around two apple trees, has views of the horse pastures and is a perfect spot for outdoor meals. Cécile and Alexandre are great hosts and were readily available when we needed advice or had questions. We recommend a carriage ride with Johan and the fresh eggs from the farm! We hope to come back soon.

It was amazing Cecile spoke perfect English was the pe
I really enjoyed my stay at this cottage. Cécile was the perfect host. The cottage was bigger Then expected and extremely clean the beds were comfortable the yard was huge and most of all the atmosphere was stunning it was a perfect week in Bailey so close to Versailles and I can’t thank Cecile enough for providing the perfect vacation for us four ladies from Florida thank you so much. Cécile also let us use her private space to have a fantastic French cooking class. We asked her to try to find us a teacher to learn the art of French cooking and she did the research and organized the class. It was the highlight of our week. Caroline the teacher chef was amazing and it truly was rewarding. Versailles was such a beautiful city with so much history. I’ll never forget this wonderful stay at Cécile ruche and Alex ruche cottage.

From the Cox family, We had a wonderful stay at the Ferme de Pentaly and Cecile was extremely welcoming and helpful from the moment we arrived (late). The gite was very clean and spacious and had everything we needed as a family and the location was very very helpful hosts and a monderful location with clean and spacious. Cecile put herself out to meet our every need and we loved being on the farm. Being close to a number of rail stations with fast train to Gare Monpanasse was ideal. We would have no hesitation on recommending this holiday place.

Full of character
We loved staying at this property. It was very comfortable, clean, modern, nicely decorated and well-equipped. Cêcile is a fabulous host - very helpful and welcoming and speaks excellent English. It was lovely to escape to the tranquility of the countryside as well as having easy access to Paris. A hire car is very useful but not essential if you are a cyclist. We did not realise that in August many Parisians are on holiday and this is when maintenance is done on the train lines so there were closures to alot of the lines and stations. I would thoroughly recommend staying at this property, great for kids, families, couples.

Perfectly charming
The owners/hosts were welcoming and helpful. It is clear they have a passion for their home and farm. The cottage is restored with a clean simple look and had all we needed in the kitchen. The location was perfect for our daytrips to the beautiful towns of Giverney, Versailles and Chartres. The farm is interesting with horses, chickens and goats. Fun for young and old.

Unique Expereince not far from LeChesnay (Versailles)
We stayed at this converted cottage because it offered parking for more than one vehicle and was in the countryside. We were very happy with our stay. It was wonderfully quiet and comfortable. Cecile was a wonderful host and took time to take us on a tour of the farm. It was so nice to get away from the traffic and noise of the cities in the evening. Le Chesnay is home to the new Paris Temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day saints. The most enjoyable and interesting part of our trip.

Charming farm cottage makes you feel a world away, but only 10 mins from Château de Versailles!
Very quaint setting with friendly host. Two bedrooms and bathrooms with a living room and kitchen and laundry machines! Perfect for 4-5 travelers. My wife and I traveled with another couple and it was perfect set up. It had privacy available but also a common area. Loved the experience and we even received a jar of honey collected from the farm we stayed at! It really felt like you were an hour out into the countryside but only a 10 min drive to Versailles. I would recommend it to all my friends and family!

Fantastic all around
I cannot say enough nice things about this property. The owners were fantastic and the house was charming, clean, and perfect for my family of 5 and my sister in law. Accessibility to Versailles and Paris were easy to reach with help from the owners. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to stay around Paris without all the headaches of staying in the middle of a city.
