Description

For an exceptional and authentic setting, the Chateau is the perfect location for your wedding celebration. It is in this castle inhabited for more than 350 years and in a family and friendly spirit that you will have the opportunity to give rise to the celebration of your wedding.

Located 20 minutes from Orléans by car but also accessible by train from Orléans or Bourges train stations, the Château has large car parks and plenty of amenities to make your day go without a hitch.

Reviews

  • I recommend! We had the best weekend of our life in a beautiful setting!
    Very beautiful room of the orangery, a beautiful castle and enough to take beautiful photos. We appreciated not having to adhere to schedules for early morning music.
    I recommend this magical place.

  • An unforgettable weekend. Come with your eyes closed! The lord is super accommodating to realize your project. The description describes the place really well. Someone came over the weekend to find out if everything was going well. We had a crazy weekend.
