Description

Push the doors of this majestic castle located in Charente-Maritime and endowed with an incredible historical heritage. Dating from the 10th century, Henri IV stayed there and it was he who made it a barony. It then passed from hand to hand before becoming the property of Arthur Bonnet, architect of the Paris metro who stuffed the property with treasures, like a gargoyle of the Sacred Heart.

The Majestic Château has no less than 6 reception rooms to welcome your guests. Each room has a different volume and a vocation of its own, it's up to you to decide the layout of your celebration. In total there are 4000 square meters of building and 200,000 square meters of land. There is also a swimming pool which has been newly renovated and will be ready for the 2023 season.

This place is neither a gite nor a bed and breakfast. When you rent the chateau, it is yours alone. The owners assure you the exclusivity of the place by giving you the keys to the house! Its owners will guide you to organize your event and allow you to make the most of the available spaces.

It can accommodate in its 60 rooms and suites of various sizes more than 150 guests. The latter are distributed in 3 buildings and on three floors, with elevator and emergency exit. The bridal residence is separate from the main building.

A sublime consecrated chapel is located near the house of the bride and groom. In the event of a religious union, you can take the priest there who will have accompanied you during the preparation of your ceremony. There is also unlimited parking, and a second non-consecrated chapel. In short, there is everything and more!

We looked for you, there is no better. There are prettier yes but there is no better. When you unite two people, two families, you don’t scatter your family all over Charente-Maritime. A wedding is a reunion and the only place that allows it is on this site. For more information please do get in touch and we would be more than happy to help.
