Company information

We aim to deliver great memories and hope that you, like us, will be carried away by the charm of this unique French house. We decorated this house to reflect what we ourselves would like to find, a family home that is open and spacious, a quiet haven hidden in the centre of an historic town.

Property information

Our home has a rich history since the fourteenth century. At that time, it was confiscated from its owner by King Charles V following an apparently political disagreement, and then given by the sovereign to his personal Chaplain as a mark of gratitude. Serving as Church property during four centuries, sold by the State in the French revolution, it was bought by a family in the early 1800s and must have witnessed intense quarrels, with one brother a Monarchist and another a Bonapartist! The property returned to the Church in the early twentieth century, serving as the residence of the Bishop of Chartres for most of the century before passing to a passionate gardener who created a magnificent French rose garden. Because we have always valued authenticity in our own travels, we designed our 2 studios and the family apartment for your comfort while preserving their historic character. Maison Ailleurs means “a home away from home” in French. We would like you to experience it that way, a home from where you can experiment Chartres at your own pace.

Neighbourhood information

At less than 5 minutes walking distance from the cathedral and the pedestrian area, Maison Ailleurs is a quiet and relaxing place to be. A large choice of restaurants at about max 10 minutes by foot propose a fine and tasteful lunches and diners.
