Calm weather

For every moment of your wedding, we've designed a Plan B indoors, while keeping the outside open to maintain the desired ambience. For example, you can hold your ceremony in the Magnanerie, which opens onto the park, or under the nomad tent, enjoy your cocktail reception in the Salle du Moulin, which opens directly onto the Château's large terrace, or the nomad tent, with its view of the park, and savor brunch in the Salle du Silo, opposite the swimming pool. These elegant, comfortable alternatives ensure the success of your event, whatever the weather.

For your wedding, our Magnanerie has everything to please you. Interested?
