The estate in pictures

A mansion, a park and wood-fired cooking

In Maisons-Laffitte, just minutes from Paris, La Vieille Fontaine occupies an early-20th-century mansion surrounded by a 6,000 m² landscaped park. This gallery takes you through the setting, the table and the atmosphere of the house, season after season.

The mansion and the park

The pale façade, the terrace and the glass veranda open onto the garden. In the park, the fountain, the stream and the little bridge create a country setting where children and grown-ups alike enjoy a stroll before or after their meal.

The brasero

At the heart of the kitchen, the brasero sets the tone: grilled octopus, rib of beef with béarnaise sauce or whole sea bass with beurre blanc, cooked over embers and served to share in the middle of the table.

The table

Ceviche, cecina de León, pan con tomate or homemade desserts: the menu follows the seasons, at lunch and dinner alike. At the bar, house cocktails are enjoyed on the terrace, overlooking the park.

Hosting your events

Family meals, garden parties or seminars: the house welcomes your events and helps you organise them.
