We have a 20-year-old Norwegian cat, Modjo, who comes and goes freely via his cat flap into the garden. His bowl needs filling once or twice a day. He is very affectionate and truly enjoys company. We are looking after him for our daughter, who received him from a friend some years ago. We do not know his full history, but we believe he may have been badly treated, as he does not like to be picked up. He is, however, a gentle presence in the house and thrives when someone is around.

Alongside caring for Modjo, we would really appreciate a little help keeping the garden well tended during your stay. There is an automatic watering system, but some manual watering is still needed, especially for the pots and younger plants.

From time to time this may include:
• Mowing the lawn if it needs it
• Watering plants in pots and planters
• Light pruning or deadheading to keep things tidy
• Sweeping the terrace or pathways
• A general eye to keeping the garden looking cared for

Nothing too demanding. Just the kind of small, regular attention that keeps everything thriving. If you enjoy being outdoors and taking pleasure in maintaining a garden, you will feel very much at home …

Apart from the famous Fontainebleau castle, there a castles at Vaux-le-Vicomte and Blandy-les-Tours. A CAR IS ESSENTIAL! There is no public transport. There are supermarkets about a 10-minute drive away and an excellent bakery in the next village. The station at Fontainebleau-Avon is a 12-minute drive away. The half-hourly train takes 40 minutes to reach Gare de Lyon in Paris. There are several forests nearby, and the river Seine is 10 minutes away by car. Our home is cosy.

We live in a small village with no shops, so IT IS ESSENTIAL TO HAVE ACCESS TO A CAR, as walking to the supermarket is not possible. We have many friends in the village if there's an emergency and help is required.

Tourismus und Freizeit

Our house is in a small village with Fontainebleau about 15 minutes away by car. The château is a must. It rivals Versailles in grandeur. Plus, the town is quite cosmopolitan with many bars and restaurants and. There is an excellent food market in the main square 3 times a week with a car park underneath.

The area is popular with rock climbers and there are several châteaux worth a visit in the vicinity.

Novi Sad, Serbia - September 2025

We are so happy and grateful to Sebastian and Sylvie for giving us the chance, even though this was our very first Nomador experience. They are such kind and welcoming people, so the communication was excellent, and their instructions about Modjo and the house were clear and helpful. Modjo is a wonderful cat with his personality that melts your heart once you get to know each other. We truly fell in love with him and enjoyed every moment of caring for him. The house, garden, and surroundings were a perfect match for our lifestyle, and we loved our stay to the fullest. We would absolutely recommend staying in Féricy, and would be delighted to come back if our paths cross again in the future.

Pantin, France - November 2024

Un sejour tres agreable chez des gens accueillants, attentionnes, sympatiques avec un chat beau et tres amical et delicat. la coincidence des gouts plutot rare a joue un grand role... quand tu trouves sur les rayons plusieurs livres que tu voulais lire....tout ca a fait oublier la deception de ne pas pouvoir aller a Fontainebleauqui etait a 12 km et qui etait la cause du choix de cette destination. C'est vrai qu'il faut venir en voiture car il y a des choses a voir tout autour. Mais la foret et les champs qui entourent Fericy offrent la possibilite de belles promenades

Paris, France - August 2024

English below Nous avons adoré notre séjour dans la belle et paisible maison de Sebastian et Sylvie. Et ce jardin !!! Nos hôtes ont été de bons conseils : recette avec les légumes du potager, endroit à visiter, réponses à nos questions…Nous remercions encore Sebastian et Sylvie pour leur confiance, notre première expérience Nomador s’est transformée en très bon souvenir grâce à eux. Passons aux choses sérieuses : Modjo !! Ce chat est une crème. Tout doux, il roucoule plus qu’il ne miaule. Pas du tout craintif, il s’est automatiquement posé près des invités qui ne sont pas à l’aise avec les animaux. Il nous manque ! We loved our stay in the beautiful and peaceful house of Sebastian and Sylvie. And this garden!!! Our hosts were good advisors: recipe with the vegetables of the garden, places to visit, answers to our questions… We thank again Sebastian and Sylvie for their trust, our first experience with Nomador has turned into a really good memory. Now, the most important: Modjo!! This cat is a cream. Sweet, he warbles more than he meows. Not at all fearful, he automatically went by the side of our guests least comfortable with animals. What a laugh. We miss him!
