Our 4 gites are located at the south of the Seine-et-Marne, to 80 km of Paris, 20 km of Fontainebleau and 5 km of the exit of the motorway A6 (easy access). On the border of Fontainebleau forest, the gites were arranged in a large farm of the 18th century. They are distributed in the various bodies of building.
Many rock climbing sites in Fontainebleau forest are located near the cottages : the Mammouth, the Maunoury and Nemours Petit-Bois at 5 km, the rock of Dame Jouanne and the Elephant in Larchant (15 km), a little further the Cuvier and the Gorges of Franchard in Arbonne-la-Forêt , the Gorges of Apremont in Barbizon, the Trois Pignons in Arbonne-la-Forêt…..

See cottageWe had a very pleasant week-long stay at the 7 person Gîte of "Haras de la Fontaine".
Both during the booking process and our time here, the landlords have been very nice and helpful.
Also, communicating in English is no problem.
The apartment was well-equiped and contained all items and features listed on the website. It might not be top modern in style and decoration, but it is very clean, spacious, and homely.
If ever we come back to the area of Nemours for another bouldering holiday, we will definitely consider staying here again.
A beautifulplace to stay some weeks in the summer. In the surrandings there is musées to see and visit. The cottage is a nice place to rest and prepare for the next day. During the not days it stened cool and confortable.
It is always difficult to find three "gites" together. So.... it was perfect for us to be here !
