Description
Set in the western Loire Valley, this exquisitely decorated 19th-century lakeside château is available exclusively, giving you and your guests the feeling of a private estate for the entire celebration.
The signature backdrop is the 22-acre private lake, complete with a romantic island and antique gazebo, plus a floating dock/terrace and on-site water fun (rowboat / kayak / paddleboard). Add palatial lawns, beautiful gardens and forest surrounds, and it instantly becomes a “wedding weekend getaway” rather than just a one-day venue.
Your wedding can unfold across multiple unforgettable spaces: hold your ceremony on the island or in the château’s Gothic chapel, enjoy a cocktail hour on the lakeside terrace, host dinner in the courtyard or elegant dining areas, then dance the night away in the Grand Salon.
For guest comfort and smooth logistics, all four floors are accessible by elevator, including reception rooms and the chapel. The château welcomes up to 75 guests, with 19 bedrooms sleeping up to 46 on site (configuration-dependent).
Beyond the celebration, the estate offers standout on-site experiences: heated swimming pool, tennis court, and a 9-hole golf course—perfect for pre-wedding downtime and next-day brunch vibes.

Describe the best wedding that happened at your venue?
There have been so many fabulous weddings here. Most couples choose to have a few days of events including a lakeside Wine & Hors d'Oeuvres Tasting to welcome everyone and introduce them to La Vie du Chateau and a Champagne Brunch in the late morning after the wedding.
On the wedding day, most couples choose an outdoor ceremony in the Gazebo on the island with the sunlight filtering through the natural catherdral like canopy of trees and glistening on the water, followed by a cocktail party on the Lakeside Terrace, a Champagne Toast under the Twin Tower Balcony, a gourmet dinner in the Courtyard or the elegant Silver Dining Room, and dancing afterwards in the Grand Salon.
True fairytale weddings that will be long cherished!
