Leaving Paris to stay at the Étangs de Corot means choosing to make more room for scenery and new discoveries. In Ville-d’Avray, walks by the water offer an initial escape, whilst Versailles opens up cultural horizons. Between these two experiences, your stay strikes the perfect balance: walking at a leisurely pace, taking in the sights, then deciding on your next move.
Rediscover the joy of strolling along the banks of the Ville-d’Avray ponds
Along the banks of the ponds, a stroll becomes a way of discovering Ville-d’Avray in a different light. Take the time to observe the reflections, follow the line of the trees surrounding the water with your eyes, and pause whenever the landscape catches your attention. These places fuelled the inspiration of the landscape painter Camille Corot and retain an identity linked to his perspective on nature. To discover them, there’s no need to pack in lots of activities: a simple stroll is enough to add a whole new dimension to your getaway. Put your phone aside for a moment, take in the nuances of the landscape and rediscover the pleasure of an outing punctuated by discoveries, conversations and breaks, whenever the mood takes you.
