There are houses where ten people can sleep. And then there are those where ten people can truly live.
La Demeure des Dix was designed around that difference. In Elbeuf-sur-Seine, near Rouen, this 280 m² character house welcomes up to ten guests in five bedrooms with king-size beds. Here, capacity is not achieved by multiplying sofa beds and extra sleeping arrangements. Five bedrooms allow everyone to retreat to their own space when the day ends. And when the time comes to gather, the large living room, dining room, kitchen, garden and spa naturally bring everyone back to the same place.
Gathering as ten, without giving up comfort. That is the whole idea of La Demeure.

Ten, without living on top of each other
A stay with family or friends works best when it leaves room for shared moments… but also for moments when everyone can retreat.
With five bedrooms for ten guests, La Demeure offers a balance that is quite rare for groups: being able to spend the weekend together without feeling constantly on top of each other.
The bedrooms have king-size beds and their own Smart TV. They are not simply rooms where you drop your bags before heading back down: they are genuine private spaces within the house.
This is especially appreciated when several couples, several generations or several lifestyles come together under one roof.
Five real bedrooms for ten guests
The maximum capacity of the house is ten guests in total.
The five bedrooms are organised around king-size beds, which makes La Demeure particularly suited to:
- reunions with friends;
- stays for several couples;
- extended families;
- parents and grandparents travelling together;
- small teams on a business stay.
The rooms where everyone gathers
If the bedrooms give everyone their space, the living areas were designed to produce the opposite effect.
The large living room naturally invites you to extend a conversation. The dining room lets everyone share the same table. The equipped kitchen accompanies those meals you cook together, the breakfasts that linger and the impromptu trips back from the market.
At La Demeure, the shared spaces are not just square metres. They are the places where the stay is built.
Outside, the stay continues
The walled garden of about 1,500 m² extends the house as soon as the weather allows. You can take your time, have lunch together, settle outside or simply enjoy an extra space when the whole group is there.
The private swim spa is heated all year round. It is one of those amenities you first imagine as a bonus to the stay, and which often becomes one of the places where everyone ends up gathering.
Summer and winter alike, it lets you slow down without having to leave the house.
A house in Normandy, between Paris and Rouen
La Demeure des Dix is located in Elbeuf-sur-Seine, in Normandy, near Rouen.
From Paris, the A13 motorway makes La Demeure an option for a few days or a long weekend alike, with a usual travel time of about 1 hr 15 depending on traffic.
Rouen is easy to reach from the house and rounds off the stay with a day around its cathedral, its half-timbered streets, the Gros-Horloge or the Place du Vieux-Marché.
But it is also perfectly possible to decide to plan almost nothing. Because with ten people, the very point of the trip can be finally having the time to be together.
Family or friends: the same need to come together
The reasons for bringing ten people together are rarely the same.
A birthday can be the occasion for the stay without the house becoming a party venue. A family may want to reunite with their grown-up children. Several couples may decide to leave Paris for a weekend. Friends may simply realise they have not all been together for far too long.
La Demeure does not impose a programme. It provides the setting.
What La Demeure is not
La Demeure des Dix is a house intended for stays and reunions.
It is not an event venue. Parties and private events are not allowed, and only guests declared for the stay may access the property.
This rule protects the house, the quality of the stay and the peace of the neighbourhood alike.
You come here to be together. Not to transform the place.
