Family stay near Paris: a natural break to get together

Are you looking for a simple and memorable idea for a family stay close to Paris ? No need to cross France to experience a real change of scenery: at Cabanes de La Réserve, nature does all the work. The domain is located in Saint-Leger-aux-Bois (Oise), at about 1h15 from Paris and 20 minutes north of Compiegne, in the heart of a natural area of 35 hectares with 3 ponds.

Here, we come as a tribe to breathe, move, laugh, fall asleep peacefully... and especially to share moments that are out of everyday life.

‍

Perfect accommodations for tribes

‍

A successful family stay is first and foremost a Adapted cabin : comfortable enough for the children, exotic enough for parents to have the impression of having gone “far away”.

‍

The huts on stilts (family format)

‍

Les Pile Cabins are designed “just like at home”, but in a natural version: they haveelectricity, of a bathroom, ofone or two bedrooms, of a terrace, of a kitchenette and an outdoor living space at the edge of the pond (with Nordic bath for the majority). Ideal when you travel with children and want to keep flexibility (snack, small simple meal, nap rhythm...).

In terms of capacity, the documents indicate family huts of up to 4/5 people according to the categories.

The Refuge: “the big cabin” to meet

‍

For larger families (or longer stays), The Refuge is an ultra-user-friendly option: 3 rooms, equipped kitchen, saloon, bathroom, and a green “holiday home” spirit (with barbecue, games and Nordic bath). To note: minimum 2 nights.

‍

The huts perched in the trees: the perched adventure (in family version)

‍

Do you want a “wow” for the children? Les Tree houses allow you to sleep perched (around 5 meters) with a comfortable experience: electricity, indoor/outdoor shower, terrace, Nordic bath... and a feeling of being “alone in the world”.
Some huts are accessible via a ladder (rather for older children) and a family version is accessible by stairs.

‍

On-site activities: the “zero headaches” program

‍

On the estate, Everything is designed to keep young and old busy without running around: walks or bike rides, boat tours, discovery of the mini-farm, board games...
The mini-farm is a real magnet for memories (and not only for children): pigs, goats... we pass by to say hello, we observe, we take the time.

And for families who like “quiet” activities: the No kill fishing is allowed on the ponds.

‍

Eating well as a family: gourmet baskets delivered to the cabin

‍

The big plus of a nature trip is that you don't have to ask yourself “where are we eating?” Here, the breakfast or brunch is placed in a basket, at the foot of the cabin, and can be enjoyed on the terrace (or in bed, if the children leave you a minute).

For dinner, several options exist: aperitif dinner, raclette/fondue, dinner prepared by a nearby restaurant owner, or barbecue basket with... even grilled marshmallows.
And the approach is clearly “local & short circuit”, with listed producers and an announced radius of 60 km.

‍

And around the estate? Beautiful “family outing” ideas

‍

If you want a getaway outside the domain, the surroundings offer nice trails: Forêt de Compiègne, walks, and visits like the Pierrefonds Castle Or theNotre-Dame d'Ourscamp Abbey.
