Les Petits Princes

Nestled between the Rambouillet Forest, the Véloscénie bike route, and exceptional cultural heritage sites, Les Petits Princes welcomes you to a peaceful, lush setting in the heart of southern Yvelines. It’s the perfect spot for nature lovers, cycling tourists, and travelers looking to unwind—all less than an hour from Paris.

Welcome to Émancé, a charming village located at the edge of the Rambouillet Forest, where the Les Petits Princes holiday cottage welcomes you for a stay filled with tranquility, nature, and exploration.

Attached to a private home, this comfortable holiday cottage for four people enjoys a peaceful setting at the junction of the Rambouillet Forest and the vast landscapes of the Beauce region. Here, every season offers a new backdrop perfect for walks, bike rides, and getaways in the heart of nature.

Particularly popular with hikers and cycling tourists, the holiday cottage is located at the foot of the GR® 655, one of the routes to Santiago de Compostela, and right next to the famous Véloscénie, a cycling route connecting Paris to Mont-Saint-Michel. A bike storage room is available, and travelers with electric bikes can easily recharge their batteries on site.

The location is ideal for exploring the treasures of the Yvelines, Eure-et-Loir, and Île-de-France regions:

Rambouillet, 10 km away: castle, Bergerie Nationale, national forest, and Espace Rambouillet,
Maintenon, 10 km away: castle and aqueduct,
Épernon, 3 km away,
Chartres, 29 km away: cathedral listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site,
Versailles, 49 km away: palace, gardens, and royal heritage,
Paris is easily accessible by train for a day trip.

Nature lovers will enjoy the kilometers of marked trails that wind through the Rambouillet forest, one of the largest natural areas in Île-de-France. Hiking, mountain biking, running, wildlife and plant watching, or simply taking family walks: there’s something for everyone.

The holiday cottage is also an ideal stopover:

on your way to a vacation,
for a weekend in the countryside,
for a stay exploring the region,
to attend a wedding or event at one of the many nearby event venues,
or for a car-free getaway to Paris.

Just 4 km away, the Gazeran train station provides easy access to Paris-Montparnasse via Line N, offering quick access to the capital while allowing you to enjoy the tranquility of the Countryside.

Bike rental shops, including those offering electric bikes, are also available in Rambouillet, allowing you to explore the region’s cycling routes.

Whether you’re a hiking enthusiast, a cycling tourer, looking to unwind, or simply eager to discover the natural beauty and cultural heritage of the Yvelines, Les Petits Princes promises you a rejuvenating stay in a pristine setting.

A true haven of peace nestled among forests, historic sites, and wide-open spaces, just outside Paris and along the Véloscénie route.
