Day trip from Paris – French food experience in a country house

EASY ACCESS: 55 min from Paris by car or 1hr by direct train (2.5 euros) - Escape to this charming 17th-century stone house in a serene hamlet by the river. Cosima and Frédéric warmly welcome you, offering a perfect couple or family-friendly retreat. Explore the house’s timeless interiors and stroll through its lush bamboo garden with 50 species. Uncover WWII shrapnel and WWI graffiti inside, immersing yourself in history. Enjoy a delightful French lunch with wine, cheese, and coffee, paired with an apéritif and appetizers (no pre-set menu, let yourself be surprised!). The French gastronomic meal is recognized as UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. Taste it with your hosts ! After lunch, wander with your hosts along the river, passing by medieval ruins and Cosima’s art studio. A truly authentic experience with ordinary citizens: your hosts are not hospitality nor travel profesionals. Frédéric is a retired researcher and Cosima is an artist and retired tour guide.

10am, departure from Paris. Choose the private driver option OR book an Uber (about 80 euros) OR take a local train (2.5 euros+20 euros Uber).

At 11am, in the village of Mauperthuis, meet your hosts Cosima and Frédéric and spend 4 hours with them in their old house (see experience description above).
