What are the castle's advantages for your reception?
With 8 centuries of history, Champ-Renard underwent numerous transformations and served various purposes before catching the eye of a passionate entrepreneurial couple in 2015. Since then, the estate has been dedicated to wine production and hosting private and professional events. Easily accessible, elegant, and comfortable, the château attracts many people looking for a reception venue in Lyon.
Renting a castle for your event offers many advantages. Located 15 minutes from Villefranche-sur-Saône and 35 minutes from Lyon, Champ-Renard has been beautifully restored to host your gatherings. Various spaces are available to accommodate your guests:
- The Salle de Garde, whose 200 m² of space, situated beneath stone vaults, can accommodate a meal for 180 guests or an evening event for 250 people;
- The Courtroom and its canopy, which are suitable for a wedding with 70 guests or a cocktail reception for up to 120 people;
- The castle’s private rooms are perfect for hosting a cocktail party for 40 guests.
Champ-Renard also features a vast 1.6-hectare English-style park. From the magnificent esplanade in front of the château to the impressive avenue lined with century-old hornbeams, the estate’s grounds are ideal for hosting a garden party or a country wedding during the warmer months.
