Le Laurier Blanc

Start by exploring the local area – perhaps with a walk or bike ride along the banks of the Yonne river, starting just by the site, or heading out to wander through nearby forests. For a different kind of activity, tackle the treetop trails at Jumping Forest (10 minutes’ drive), go horse riding (15 minutes) or try waterskiing, paddleboarding and the inflatable assault course at EXO 77 La Grande Paroisse (15 minutes). Over in Fontainebleau (25 minutes’ drive or accessible by public transport) you can visit the castle, go hiking in the forest or sign up for a sled dog ride. If animal attractions are your thing, you might also like to visit the ostriches at L'Autruche Rieuse (10 minutes). Day trips to Paris are easily doable from this site, too – either by car or using public transport. Wear yourselves out as much as you like – visiting the Louvre, Eiffel Tower, Notre-Dame and other sights – safe in the knowledge you can unwind in your hot tub at the end of it all…
