INSIDE
This 19th century château is rich in décor. Wooden panelling lines the walls and ceilings of the reception rooms and bedrooms which have been restored to reflect its former charm. Each room has been carefully curated with timeless designs to highlight its unique features, creating a luxurious space for your wedding.

OUTSIDE
A north, east, south and west terrace encricles the Château and overlooks the surrounding 10 hectare park. Observe the views of the treetops and rolling landscape from the terraces, or lose yourself amongst the forest. The park is kept cultivated to protect and nourish the numerous, ancient trees; however, an element of the forest is left for the wildlife. This creates a harmony that allows us to bare witness to Eagles, Golden Orioles and Owls.

BEYOND
Beyond the Château, you will find numerous medieval towns which are filled with French culture from exquisite restaurants, to local artisan goods. A market can be found nearly everyday of the week and the undulting terrain hides some very special treasures to explore.
Whether you wish to explore the local area by car, bike or by foot, the Lot-et-Garonne region is a beautiful, untouched area that truly reflects the majesty of France.

The hot springs that are in Nouvelle-Aquitaine are not to be missed and this is great if you want to pamper yourself after the big day. Poitou-Charentes is on the Atlantic Coast and the sandy white beaches are culturally stimulating ad the most beautiful location to get married in France. Famous for its beautiful architecture as well as its incredible food and wine, This region has it all. Castles from yesteryear adorn every hilltop and the region is a must for anyone who enjoys their food. Local specilaities include truffles, foie gras, prunes and of course wine, so every wedding will be full of amazing cuisine and your guests will not be disappointed. If it is the classic French chateau that you are after for your wedding in France then you have to conside Nouvelle Aquitaine and the surrounding areas!

Reviews

  • I spent a week with friends staying under the care of Hannah, Aaron and Harriet. We really enjoyed the stay - there are a relaxing range of things to do at the Chateau and the hosts were great for recommending things to do. The buildings contain incredible decor!

  • Our stay at the Chateau was perfect. The accommodation was renovated beautifully and made our trip really comfortable. The Chateau was a good base for excursions in the surrounding in which Aaron and Hannah supported us.
