Just south of the river Oise sits the village of Villers-Saint-Frambourg-Ognon, where the pastoral charm of this Picardy château will win your heart. Work and play are equally at home in this serene, country-style home just 45 minutes outside of Paris.
Up to 12 guests can stay in the château and appreciate the modern comforts, like the recently re-done en suite bathrooms and updated kitchen. Outside, there is a pretty stone terrace with tables, where you can dine al-fresco beside the neatly kept garden. Children will have plenty of playtime in the large garden, or on the trampoline and swing-set. Larger groups can also rent the separate annexe located next to the pool, which sleeps an additional 5 guests.
The location of this château leaves nothing to be desired; all within an hour’s drive you’ll find the historical commune of Senlis (6 km), the castles and Musée Condé at Chantilly (17 km), Paris (60 km), and the Palace of Versailles (75 km). But there’s no need to travel far afield - local walks through the forests of Halatte, Compiègne and Ermenonville will also delight you and yours.
The village of Villers-Saint-Frambourg-Ognon has kept its authenticity since the first Lords of Ognon took up residence. In 1526, François 1st took hunting expeditions in the area, right in the heart of the "three forests" Halatte, Ermenonville and Chantilly.
The house is also designed to accommodate business seminars and equipped with a dedicated room with a large screen, and catering for meals.
Château de Garmeaux is only 20 minutes from Paris-Charles-de-Gaulle Airport and 50 minutes from Paris-Beauvais-Tillé Airport.
