With some terrific day trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to enjoy all that Troyes, 25 miles away, has to offer. Troyes Cathedral, St-Pantaleon Church and 16th-Century Troyes alone make the drive out here worthwhile. The locals are also likely to point you toward Chalons-en-Champagne, 45 miles away. If you can only see one thing here, let it be English Jard. (But we’d also highly recommend Notre-Dame de l’Epine Basilica and Museum of Fine Arts and Archaeology.)
