Visited and selected by Chateau Bee

Chateau du Val is an elegant neogothic South Brittany wedding venue. It has a beautiful reception hall with crystal chandelier and polished parquet floors that will give your wedding a certain Versailles feel !

What we liked during our visit at Chateau du Val, beside its very elegant façade, was the flexibility to create a bespoke event. Indeed the owner is not only adorable but also flexible and open to new ideas. Furthermore, she is English herself, and with her list of recommended partners helps couples organise the whole event.

For the ceremony you can choose your favorite spot in the large and magical park of the chateau. The stone Pavilion building also gives a covered option. Pre-wedding cocktails and canapés are typically served in the chateau’s front gardens and on the terrace, while the wedding dinner can take place in the elegant salons or a summery marquee.

After dinner the guests can appreciate the Chateau and other buildings lit up at night, the after party continuing in the Pavilion and overflowing onto the cobbled courtyard.  The evening can then finish with a late night snack at magnificent fire work display.

The more informal Lodge area allows guests to relax on the sofas and enjoy a drink or make a coffee as and when they wish. Couples sometimes choose to arrive a few days early, and make the most of the self-catering facilities of the Lodge.

The wedding dinner will be prepared by the chateau’s in house chefs who can also offer simpler meals around the wedding day such as BBQ’s, brunches, buffets or a Brittany crêpe and pancake event with local cider from 25€.

On the grounds guests have full use of the 15m pool and tennis court, as well as the possibility to walk the trails in the private forest.

Finally, although Chateau du Val is set in the Brittany countryside, there is plenty of nearby accommodation .

Things to do near Chateau du Val:

Chateau du Val is located in the heart of Brittany and very close to La Gacilly a vibrant village with restaurants and arts and craft shops. La Gacilly also holds, every summer, France’s biggest open air photography festival. At the chateau you will be a step away from the Broceliande Forest or “The King Arthur Forest” renowned as a place of magic and mystery (35 km). In the area there are a number of golf courses, pony riding in the village and nearby canoeing and kayak possibilities

If you are after a city buzz head to Rennes, the capital of Brittany and one of the most dynamic cities in France.

Finally from the Chateau you could go and explore the North coast and visit Mont Saint Michel or the Morbihan bay of South coast and take a boat out from Vannes and explore the islands such as Ile aux Moines or visit our favorite spot, Saint-Goustan harbour.

Reviews

"Thanks very much to you too for hosting us, we had a dream wedding and both ourselves and our guests have been running out of superlatives to describe how much we enjoyed it and what a wonderful setting the Chateau made. Thanks very much to yourself and your staff for making everything possible, I would certainly have no hesitation in using the Chateau again or in recommending you to anyone we know."
