The station is for Le Pecq is “le Vésinet-le Pecq” on the Rer line A, 25 minutes from central Paris. Much of the centre was left in ruins after World War Ii, but the old town survived and, despite development, Le Pecq has not lost its charm. The whole town stretches along both banks of the Seine, and consequently feels a bit split in two. The St Germain side, especially to the west, is more developed, but from the Georges Pompidou bridge, the view east is green and the areas surrounding the lake and the park behind are predominantly residential. The bridge and its adjoining road network can become very congested, especially in the rush hours. There is a Lycée International (British Section) partner school for the primary years, otherwise your daily commute to school is likely to be by car. Sports facilities are exceptional, particularly for water sports, with a yachting and rowing club and a municipal Olympic pool. Le Vesinet is just around the corner after Croissy on the Rer leaving Paris, but still just 17 minutes from Etoile. 19th-century mansions and manors, riverside paths and gardens, artsy and cultural events galore. The church is at the heart of the town, surrounded by a cluster of pretty shops - mostly chocolates and designer clothes. Le Vésinet is unapologetically rarefied and figures very high on the list of most expensive towns in France. Expatriates flock here for the cachet and for the very good international schools in Vesinet (Ecole Internationale Malherbe) and around (eg the British School in Croissy). An active association is dedicated to welcoming expatriates and introducing them to the French language, the people and to Vesinet’s delightful surroundings. This place has been compared to the best of English stock broker belt living, but really, one imagines the locals might find that a bit insulting. St Germain en Laye is just 5 minutes by car. The last stop on the Rer A, and one of the principal towns of the Yvelines, St Germain has a bustling centre with a regular market. Life is extremely cosmopolitan here thanks to the families drawn by the Lycée International with its many different international sections. An alternative to the Lycée International is the well regarded Institut Notre Dame (catholic). There are many stylish stores and boutiques, and the bars and restaurants offer a huge choice of cuisines - there is even a British pub and an Irish bar close to the centre. The beautiful and historically highly significant chateau housed a succession of monarchs stretching back to the 14th century. Now a museum, its interior and grounds are open to the public. Sunday walkers enjoy stunning views over the river (and to Paris beyond) from the two-kilometre-long elevated terrace. Food shopping can be done in town, or at Carrefour in Montesson or Chambourcy. Other than the Rer (25 minutes into Paris) buses run to the outlying areas. You can also get into St Lazare using the suburban rail line. Getting around Parking is free on the street, and you will see your car from the window. The Rer A station Le Pecq-le Vesinet is around 10 minutes walking through the wonderful path with small channels of water with ducks.
