REASONABLE - SAFE - FUN & ADVENTURE
BICYCLE & WALKER'S PARADISE

Enjoy French country village life and the excitement of Paris at the same time! The historically classed village of Carrières sur Seine is a bicycler and walker's paradise. It was a favorite of the impressionists who painted its little winding streets with quarry stone houses built up along the Seine. You can live in a village house as the only American in town and yet be only 20 minutes by public transportation from the Champs Elysées and 30 minutes from the Latin Quarter. And if you want to visit Versailles, Giverny, and destinations west, staying in Carrieres means you are already on your way!

In Carrières, you can walk everywhere. Shop in the open air town market, and be known by the boulangère. Spend time in the little jewel of a Parc across the street, designed by Le Nôtre, gardener to King Louis XIV. Walk the lovely miles along the Seine on a pedestrian path past the old lavoir (now an art gallery). Or head to the café by the river and watch the local folks playing boules.

Our little, one bedroom apartment is on the ground-floor of a three-story house in the center of the old village, two steps from a beautiful park on the Seine. There is a fully-equipped kitchen, tile floors, and functional IKEA style furniture. There is a double bed in the bedroom and a pullout couch in the living room. A washer and dryer are available in the cave with plenty of storage space for suitcases.

We have adored living in Carrières and have kept it a special secret. We’d be glad to share our special place with travelers who are bound to appreciate it the way our family has. We have left lots of information in the apartment about how to enjoy the area. We accept payment in dollars, which we hope will reduce your expenses while giving you an unforgettable trip to Paris.

You will find enclosed some attachments of photos of Carrières and of our apartment. If you are interested in a vacation rental, please return this e-mail with your projected dates of stay. We will return information about rates and rental conditions along with a full set of pictures of the apartment and the neighborhood.

A bientôt,
Roger and Andrea

    • My wife and I stayed here for a week in October 2008. It was lovely and comes with the highest recommendation. The community is quiet, yet has all necessary amenities. The location is an ideal place from which to explore Paris, yet be able to enjoy quiet at the end of the day. If you are staying in Paris, please consider staying in this apartment.

    • We just returned from a lovely stay in Carrieres-sur-Seine. Roger and Andrea's apartment was great. Perfectly situated just outside Paris. Charming and nicely appointed. Spotless clean when we arrived. We loved the excellent bus service to the RER train station and could go from the living room of the apartment to central Paris in 35 minutes! Which we did every day! The town is gorgeous, great for walking. The people were friendly and helpful. The market and nearby supermarket were within walking distance. The neighborhood is also amazingly quiet! It was a heavenly week - we only wish we could have stayed longer!

    • September is a great time to visit Carriers-sur- siene! The location was perfect.....especially for the price. Everything was in great working order and the apartment was very clean and neat on our arrival. We rented a car and had no problem parking every day. We either took the car to the RER to go in to Paris or went on day trips. Because of the great location we had a head start on our day trips to Giverny, Versailles, and Rouen. Very quaint town with very friendly and helpful people!

      We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the beautiful and quaint village of Carrières-sur-Seine! Our stay was perfect. We had the peace and quiet of a lovely traditional French village but also the convenience of being so close to the center of Paris, and also Versailles. We had everything we needed in the apartment: bedroom, kitchen, private bathroom, and even our own laundry!

      Just spent three weeks at Carrières sur Seine in an apartment owned by the Masons. The apartment is very charming and very convenient. Found everything we needed there. You can walk a block to the bus to take it to the RER train station into Paris very quickly. Carrières itself is a lovely small hamlet. We walked to the village market every morning for fresh croissants and coffee. They sell beautiful fruits, cheese and meats too. The people at City Hall were so helpful and the English speaking lady there was of great assistance. We also picked up a regional map and that was very helpful to us. We had a wonderful time...close to the Seine and great cafe on the Seine with good French food. I recommend this to anyone wanting to visit. Celeste Stoddard.

      Our stay was really pleasant, thanks! Our favorite things were 1)the neighborhood, including ancient and Impresionist sites nearby, 2) walking distance to Franprix, modern but with plenty of French standard items (baguettes & very inexpensive brie), 3) fully functioning washer and dryer, 4) picturesque windows and views. I expected the little boy from the Red Balloon to go running by at any moment.

      We returned yesterday from a very pleasant Ile-de-France vacation. Everything was OK, the apartment was nice, we did a lot of sightseeing and the weather was very nice, except one rainy day. No problems in the apartment, everything worked fine, nothing broke. Yesterday the cleaning lady came by and instructed us where to leave the key. We left 9:30 in the morning and drove back to our home in Holland, a six hour drive approximately. I pretend to recommend your apartment to some friends of mine, so maybe you'll hear from them in the future. Regards, Quirijn de Jong van Lier

      We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in your apartment. Everything worked well, and we enjoyed the location. Diane and I particularly enjoyed the surrounding parks and the lovely walk along the Seine. We adjusted quickly to the transportation system and enjoyed buying produce at the local market and grocery stores. Thank you for allowing us the experience of an authentic French holiday in Paris.

      My grandson and I had a most wonderful time in your pretty town. The people were all most helpful and friendly. A young lady from Carrières who was going to visit her father helped us with our first time on the RER and metro. Also, all of your detailed explanations about the bus were so helpful. I love your little apartment. I could live here happily from now on. I will recommend your lovely apartment to all my friends and I do plan to come again. Bonne journée.
