A French chateau for a family day at Chantilly



If you are visiting Paris this year with younger children in tow, you may be wondering what can be found to amuse grown ups and little ones alike.  Here is an idea for you, a few miles north of Paris, the Château de Chantilly and its beautiful Potager des Princes,  racecourse and equestrian museum.






The chateau can be visited inside as well,  it's a fantastic alternative to Versailles because there are not the same unending crowds and queues.



At Chantilly they have really thought about their family clients and offer rowing on the lake, the stables and equestrian museum, a lesson in planting in the potager and they even have rabbit races!  Although I don't know if they take bets :)



Good French family fun!
