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.

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.
