Close to Chartres and its attractions

Just 2.6 km from the heart of Chartres, Le Coudray allows you to fully enjoy the cultural and tourist riches of the city — UNESCO-listed cathedral, museums, restaurants, shops — without the drawbacks: noise, traffic and parking difficulties remain at a safe distance.

The city of Chartres, capital of light and perfume, is world-famous for its magnificent cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Located on the doorstep of Paris and the Loire Valley châteaux, Chartres offers wonderful opportunities for day trips during your stay.

Here are 10 unmissable visits and activities in Chartres:

• Notre-Dame Cathedral of Chartres — The absolute jewel of the city, nicknamed "the Acropolis of France" by Rodin. A masterpiece of Gothic architecture listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it houses over 2,600 m² of exceptional stained glass from the 12th and 13th centuries and 176 sculptures. Over one million visitors per year. An absolute must.
• Chartres en Lumières — From April to September, every evening at nightfall, 24 monuments and sites across the city are adorned with free, magical illuminations. The highlight: the Royal Portal of the cathedral lit up in its original medieval colours. The Festival of Light in September draws tens of thousands of visitors.
• La Maison Picassiette — A unique masterpiece of outsider art. From 1938 to 1962, Raymond Isidore covered the walls, floors and furniture of his home entirely with mosaics of glass and ceramic shards. Awarded the "20th Century Heritage" label, it rarely leaves visitors indifferent.
• The Museum of Fine Arts — Housed in the former Bishop's Palace adjoining the cathedral, it holds a remarkable collection of paintings, sculptures, enamels and tapestries from the 15th to the 20th century. The adjoining Bishop's Garden offers a breathtaking view of the cathedral.
• The International Stained Glass Centre — A museum, training centre and research facility dedicated to the art of stained glass. Permanent and temporary exhibitions tracing the history of stained glass techniques through the centuries, with demonstrations by master glassmakers. Located just steps from the cathedral.
• The Lower Town and the Banks of the Eure — An unmissable stroll among medieval bridges, washhouses, mills and picturesque alleyways. The Rue des Ecuyers with its 15th and 16th-century houses, the Collegiate Church of Saint-André overlooking the river, and the Maison du Saumon — 10 Place de la Poissonnerie — are among the gems of this timeless neighbourhood.
• The Cathedral Crypt — The largest crypt in France, accessible only on a guided tour. A unique candlelit experience to discover the remains of the original sanctuary dating back to the Carolingian era. A journey into the depths of history.
• Maintenon Castle — Just 15 km from Chartres, Maintenon Castle is a royal and unmissable day trip. The former residence of Madame de Maintenon, the secret wife of Louis XIV, it offers a romantic setting surrounded by moats and bathed by the Eure river. The French-style park designed by Le Nôtre and the imposing arches of Louis XIV's Aqueduct complete an exceptional visit.
• The Bishop's Garden and Parks — A verdant terrace overlooking the lower town and the banks of the Eure, the Bishop's Garden offers one of the finest views of the cathedral. Ideal for a peaceful, contemplative break between visits.
• The Saturday Market and Local Specialities — Every Saturday morning, the Place Billard comes alive with a colourful and mouth-watering market. The perfect opportunity to discover the Pâté de Chartres (traditional pâté en croûte), Mentchikoffs (praline chocolate covered in meringue), Chartres beer and local Eure-et-Loir produce.

Good to know: Chartres is also the world capital of perfumery, at the heart of the Cosmetic Valley. For nature lovers, the Zoo-Refuge La Tanière is just 7 minutes by car from our hotel in Le Coudray.
