We stayed at Dormouse House, Villenes sur Seine, France early November. It is situated just 20 minutes by train to Paris, but feels as if it is in the countryside far away from the city! It has the most beautiful, impressionistic views and coloring. Lisa Quinn, the giving and lively hostess, will make sure you have all you need. We especially enjoyed the beauty of her home, the surrounding home gardens, the home cooked meals, the fireplace in the salon, thick towels, lots of pillows, and great cooking lessons!

We just returned from a five night stay. What a disappointment. Not at all a France five star B&B experience. The whole house is very dirty. The sheets were dirty. The dishes were dirty. When I saw the kitchen I couldn't eat there. For breakfast we were served old toast and reheated coffee. After finishing my coffee the first morning I looked in the cup and saw old food stuck to the bottom of the cup. We thought we would be served croissants and french pastries. The dog pooed and peed on the floor the first night there. This was our first experience with a B&B...and our last.

I just returned from a weekend in Paris and stayed at the lovely Dormouse House B&B. Lisa made a special effort to help me (I’m a single woman traveling solo) figure out places to go and how to get there feeling safe the whole time. Dormhouse is 30 min train ride from Paris in a safe, quiet suburb. Her home is lovely and I found the blue room to be extra-ordinarily comfortable. She also was very understanding in a difficult circumstance.

We stayed at Lisa's for only 2 nights in early Oct. and found the accomodations (blue room)to be quite cozy. Lisa will do everything to make your stay a memorable one....she's a pretty good cook, too! Paris is about half an hour away by train(and trains are a very comfortable ride). If you have several days or a week to explore Paris, then the Dormouse House is a great refuge from the hustle & bustle of Paris....so peaceful and quiet. And Vilennes-sur-Seine seems like a nice place to explore, too!
