Holiday Rentals in Seine-et-Marne - A Guide to Seine-et-Marne
Your holiday rentals in Seine-et-Marne is located to the east of central Paris. It is the largest departement in Ile-de-France region of France, making up 49% of the entire Region. The area is predominantly farmland and new towns and cities, which make up Paris suburbs, but it is also the home to Fountainebleau and Euro Disney.
There are several ways to get to your Seine-et-Marne holiday rentals. You could fly direct from the UK to Paris Charles de Gaulle airport but I would suggest hiring a car to fully explore the area. All the major car hire firms are present at the airport – don’t forget to pre-book to avoid disappointment! You could of course take your own car through the Channel Tunnel – this should only take a few hours from Calais. From Calais to your holiday rentals in Seine-et-Marne you should take the A26 south into the departement trying to avoid central Paris.
Or if you are on foot then the Eurostar will take you from London St. Pancras station direct into the heart of Paris. If Euro Disney is your destination then the Eurostar can take you into Paris and then on to the resort.

Over the past 50 years the population of Seine-et-Marne has tripled due mainly to the urban sprawl from Paris and the development of the departements many tourist attractions. And because of this explosion, there are properties to rent in Seine-et-Marne of all types and sizes.
A perfect apartment to rent in Seine-et-Marne is located 2 minutes from the Euro Disney Theme Park and would suit a family with small children. The shops are a 5 minute walk and the railway station is 3 minutes away – perfect also for holiday makers without a car. The apartment sleeps up to 8 and has everything you would need to self-cater. It would be a great base to travel into central Paris when you fancy a change.
If you are planning a more cultured holiday, then how about staying in a period manor house, south of Fonatinebleau. I found a holiday rental in Montigny-sur-Loing, a large house, sleeping up to 12 people. It has extensive grounds, tennis courts, swimming pool and a typical rural French interior.
