An idyllic setting 2 hours from Paris

A charming guest house

Only two hours from Paris via the A6 or the national highway for those who prefer to take the time to explore the many châteaux and vineyards that line the road up to in Puisaye Forterre (country of Colette) the happy traveler will arrive in Taingy. After having bypassed the Saint Martin church (Flamboyant Gothic portal from the 15th century) you will take a stony path nicely surrounded by a green tunnel which will lead you to the Manoir de la Croix de Saint Louis where your hosts will have the joy of welcoming you.

Our guest house built in 1830 on the site of a former convent (Couvent de la Croix Saint Louis) bears the story of a family of the French bourgeoisie which since the reign of Charles X participates in the influence of local life. Writers, artists and politicians have often stayed in this place steeped in history.

Marie Pierre (Vincennes)

Time stands still at the Manoir de la Croix Saint Louis. Everything is quiet, simplicity and refinement. The idyllic place to recharge your batteries for a weekend.

Pierre & Carine (Paris)

20 km from the A6, the Manoir de la Croix Saint Louis is a stopover not to be missed. I spent two nights in the "Ralf Master Suite" and it will remain one of my fondest memories in bed and breakfast. Bravo for this luxury suite worthy of a palace.

Mickael (Harrogate Yorkshire)

French good taste breathes in all the rooms of this splendid house. The present objects of French invoice are a permanent delight for the eyes. For sure, aesthetes will love this place ... Breakfast is royal and what about the table d'hôte: a real treat!

Margot (Paris)

I loved the music room where I played for hours on the Érard ¼ grand piano. The fireplace crackled, the large chandelier with pendants sparkled, a porcelain cup resting on the marble table gave off a delicate aroma of Christmas tea; I was happy to live this simple, high and saving moment for my spirit.

Activities for all tastes

Le Manoir located in the heart of a valley in the village of Taingy (commune of Hauts de Forterre 89560) is surrounded by valleys cultivated with vines and wheat. Dirt tracks intersect here and there, allowing walkers to stroll and admire the landscape. It is not uncommon to see deer or other animals from the nearby forest come to find their food in the fields.

Near the Manor there are many cultural sites to discover, such as: The castle Medieval Guédelon built by master craftsmen with the machinery and tools used in the Middle Ages. The house of Colette where she spent all her childhood but also the museum dedicated to her. The castle of Saint Fargeau princely residence of the Grande Mademoiselle first cousin of Louis XIV. The village of Toucy with its famous Market (ranked sixth market in France. The vineyards of Chablis , d’Irancy , Coulanges la Vineuse and Saint bris are a stone’s throw from the Manoir.
