Located in the heart of historic Versailles, this home has a great location with the Palace of Versailles a short walk away. Nearby you’ll also find the Salle du Jeux de Palme, while Paris can be reached in under an hour. Or have a walk down Satory Street with its restaurants and shops. Back at this apartment, there’s a pretty shared cobbled courtyard with pots and troughs of geraniums. Inside, it's simply furnished, but it has all you need for a French break.

Home truths:
*Access to this home is via a private entrance
*There are three steps up to the door of this ground-floor apartment
*Unfortunately, this home is not suitable for children
*Though there isn't a dedicated desk here, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace
*The decor is very simple and generic and the aesthetics are not quite up to Plum Guide's usual standards – we've made an exception to let this one into the collection on account of its great location in Versailles
