AN ENCHANTED ESCAPE AN HOUR FROM PARIS
At the end of a path, where the village gives way to the forest, a house lies hidden. La Folie Barbizon, a storybook house imagined by Marion Collard and Sarah Valente, where the forest enters every room and art inhabits every corner.
Four stars, 21 rooms and 3 suites, a restaurant opening onto the garden, a wellness space. At the heart of Barbizon, cradle of Pre-Impressionism, just steps from Fontainebleau. You come for a night, you stay for a story.
A LOCAVORE, SINCERE AND JOYFUL CUISINE
From Friday evening to Sunday lunchtime,
From 12:00 pm to 2:00 pm and from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm
Chef Éric Fava celebrates the terroir with generous cooking, inspired by the forest and by the produce of local artisans. Lunches that stretch on among friends, dinners beneath the stars, a wine and tapas bar through the week.
A table as a place of meeting and sharing, beneath a sky-painted ceiling and among the artworks.
SPA AND WELLNESS
Reconnect, in the heart of the woods.
On the forest's edge, the spa by EÏA welcomes you like a breath of air. A refuge rooted in the energies of trees, stone and earth. Every treatment is a sensory walk: here, one rediscovers one's breath, one's centre, one's light.
Each gesture is bespoke, drawn from the elements. Time slows, the body is freed. To breathe, to root oneself, to settle. Welcome to your inner forest.
ACTIVITIES
Less than an hour from Paris, this former country residence transforms into an artistic refuge, a living stage, a dream factory.
Walks, workshops, yoga, cultural discoveries: a programme that shifts with the rhythm of the seasons, designed for every age and every desire.
On the edge of the Fontainebleau forest, an hour from Paris, La Folie Barbizon is a house-hotel with an artistic soul. Its rooms and suites, conceived by some twenty artists, offer singular settings between village and nature. Chef Éric Fava’s locavore restaurant celebrates the terroir and seasonal produce, while the wellness space and its enchanted terrace invite pure relaxation.
