Reviews

  • The Château is a magnificent site for a wedding. We have opted for the rental of the Orangery and the cottage. The Orangery room is spacious with all the necessary equipment for a DJ and the caterer. Large sliding bay windows allow you to have the Château as a backdrop throughout the evening.

    Access to the gardens is a significant point and that pleased the guests. Indeed, being able to visit the Half Moon garden, the main courtyard etc... makes the place even more magical for photos...

    I highly recommend this reception site to let the magic of your wedding work and to make your guests succumb.

  • My husband and I visited the Château a year and a half before our wedding and we didn't need to do any further visits, it was the perfect setting. In addition, the team of managers of the castle knew how to be always present to answer all our questions. They respected each of our decisions regarding the organization. They also demonstrated professionalism in certain unforeseen situations. Guests were impressed with the venue. The orangery benefits from the basic equipment necessary for a wedding dinner. We were 120 and we were very comfortable. One of the many strengths is also the gîtes on the estate, which allowed us to accommodate close family. Note that many lodgings or Airbnb are located around.
