La Grande Maison, Picardie

8/24/2012

And it is grand..... and comfortable, and soothing, and lovely..... Located in Chelles (Picardie,) it is a retreat for the senses - soft, relaxing colors and textiles, all seemingly vintage and welcoming.

We had the good fortune to stay here with my husband's whole family when we attended a recent wedding. Since we took all five rooms and had the run of the place, I got to poke around and really appreciate what they've done with what started out as more or less a ruin.

Only 5 minutes from Pierrefonds and its château and 1 hour from Paris. You can relax here after the hustle & bustle.

Beautiful, age worn patina, throughout.

The rooms.....

Visit it if you can, Mme Gillieron and her family, couldn't have been more accommodating or at the ready with suggestions about the area or a cup of tea.

The only thing that made leaving easy was that I knew we would have to drive home through the Champagne region. More on that another time....
