AMAZING PLACE ♥️

Staying at this B&B was such a gift. So close to Paris, yet it feels like a world apart. Peaceful, welcoming, and full of heart. Bella’s Cottage is absolutely stunning (easily 15 times the size of my flat!) and so thoughtfully renovated.

David and Marie have been incredible hosts, and the food… honestly mind-blowing. Special mention goes to the Italian night, which was unforgettable! 🤤😋🤤

It’s such a blessing to meet fellow vegans whose kindness and vision truly help restore hope in humanity. We’ll definitely be back. Thank you for creating such a beautiful space.

Thank you so much Silvia!🌻

It was such a joy to welcome Audrey, Lucky, Ohana and you at Bella's cottage! We're so touched by your kind words. It means the world to us that you enjoyed David's cooking especially on Italian night. It's quite the compliment coming from an Italian with true Italian roots!

We can't wait to host you again in our little corner of paradise!

Warmly, Marie, David & Lorenzo

Dearest Mary & David,

Thank you mille fois.
You are surely the warmest, kindest, most thoughtful people in the world!!

What you have created here is a jewel. The craftsmanship, the care to detail and the planning is absolutely wonderful. The loo night light a stroke of genius.

The meals you prepared were sublime, (if I wasn’t such a dedicated carnivore I might even convert — all totally delicious). Would love to see the gradual evolution of the work in progress.

Bless you both very special people.
Not forgetting the charming Lorenzo.

Pros: Loo night light, Every item one could wish for or need isavailable

Unforgettable

I had such an amazing stay! The place is a bucolic, a beautifully renovated farm by the host David. The brunch and dinner are entirely homemade with vegetable and herbs from their garden, and it sooo tasty and generous in quantity. The hosts, Marie and David, was an adorable couple, really taking care of their guests and we had great friendly discussions. And
cherry on the cake, the bike hiking with an bicycle champion in the beautiful French countryside. Absolutely recommend!

Pros: Amazing Food, Beautiful place, Adorable hosts

Une maison d'hôte géniale 100% végane

Nous avons passés 2 jours chez Marie et David, qui nous ont très bien accueilli :
- le cottage ou nous logions est grand et très bien aménagée et décorée (salle de bain hyper confort, cuisine avec tout ce qu'il faut, salon, salle à manger et chambre)
- le petit déjeuner est inclus, délicieux, très copieux et fait maison que l'on prend sur la terrasse
- le dîner, également très copieux, cuisiné par le très talentueux David, on mangeait dans le jardin en bonne compagnie avec nos deux hôtes
- ils proposent également de faire des activités en extérieur selon nos envies : escalade, vélo
- les environs sont très mignons, tout à fait propice à des balades.
En bref, un week end vegan exceptionnel chez des hôtes adorables, nous ne pouvons que vous le recommander !

A 100% vegan corner of paradise

Bella's Cottage is a small masterpiece created by the skilful hands of David and cared for down to the smallest detail by Marie's heart. We immediately thought that we would gladly move there.

Original and delicious dinner shared with the hosts in a pleasant family atmosphere.

Sweet and savoury breakfast served in the romantic courtyard for exclusive use.

Viví (our dog) really enthusiastic he didn't want to leave anymore.

For all of us 4 💚💚💚💚 super deserved.

Au revoir à bientôt Marie e David.

Magnifique

We had a really lovely stay with an amazing freshly prepared breakfast full of homegrown and locally sourced produce.

Marie and David have done a great job of converting the old barn, it has a very spacious feel and lovely rustic decor.

They were extremely attentive hosts and really knowledgeable about the local area, transport links to Paris, etc.

Pros: Amazing breakfast, Beautifully decorated accommodation, Friendly and helpful hosts

Great Vegan B&B in the French countryside near Fontainebleau

Our family of three (a couple with an infant) had the fortunate pleasure of being the very first guests in Bella's Cottage at La Grange DesRochers.
It was a Wonderful experience which we cherish and highly recommend.

The property is located in the French countryside, in the small town of Paley, France (near Fontainebleau) just under a one-hour train ride from downtown Paris. It is run by Marie & David, a bilingual couple (English and French) who are expats from Canada and America. Once we arrived at the Montigny sur Loing train station, we were picked up by the host (for a small fee) and brought to the lovely estate. There is also parking on site if guests prefer to drive.

The guest house, Bella's Cottage (named after their dog), is the converted main floor of an 1800's barn. It has all the modern conveniences one can ask for with wifi, its own kitchen, full bath, bedroom and living room (no television - though not needed).
The local small town is very peaceful, great for walks, meditation and to get away from the busy city.

The hosts were very friendly and went above and beyond to accommodate our family. They offer bouldering (rock climbing) in famous nearby area of Font, bicycle tours, yoga and Pilates (each for a fee). Marie is a physiotherapist so definitely knows her stuff. We happily took the boulder and Pilates which was a highlight of the trip.

Though the star of the trip is definitely the food!
Chef David provided top tear meals, from food mostly which he had grown on or near the estate; a truly wonderful farm to table experience.
We have eaten at top Michelin Star restaurants around the world and the quality of the meals stand up!
I highly recommend seeing if you can convince them to provide lunches or dinners if you are able. Well worth any extra cost.

We will definitely look to visit again next time we are in France.

Pros: The Food!!! is awesome, Warm and friendly hosts, Close to nature, and near Fontainebleau

Cons: Remote (but this is also a Pro)

Cosy home away from home

My partner and I stayed at Bella's cottage for 4 nights. We were warmly welcomed by Marie, David and their young dog Lorenzo. They all made sure we were comfortable and well taken care of. It almost felt like being part of the family! But with the added bonus to have our total independence. We appreciated the relaxing calm of the countryside and enjoyed lovely walks all around the cottage. Marie and David were very helpful and explained what activities and sightseeing could be done in the area. They even drove us to the train station so we could spend a day in Paris (only 1 hour away). We felt very cosy in our refurbished little house. All the furniture and decoration have been thoughtfully chosen to enjoy the charm of vintage items, with all the modern amenities. And last but not least, we enjoyed David's vegan cooking so much! All the dishes were delicious and prepared from fresh ingredients (some even came from their own garden). We highly recommend visiting Bella's cottage and we will surely be back for more!

Pros: cosiness of the newly refurbished cottage, delicious vegan food freshly prepared, lovely and helpful hosts

Lovely place and great food

I really loved Bella’s cottage! The owners did an amazing renovation job and the cottage has been thoughtfully decorated to obtain a cosy « cottage feeling ». I especially loved the beautiful stonework in the bathroom and the lovely wooden furniture in the living room. David is a very talented cook, it’s worth the trip just for the food! The village is calm and peaceful, you could take nice walks in the forest nearby. A good opportunity to reconnect with nature and disconnect from a busy city life. #Veganuary

Pros: Bella’s cottage, The food !!!, The Calmness of the place

Cons: None
