Rent a historic estate for your exclusive seminar

What could be better for a seminar near Lyon than renting a historic estate full of character, combining a relaxed lifestyle with authenticity?

That is exactly what the Château de Champ-Renard in Blacé, in the Rhône region, has to offer. Built in the 13th century, the building lost its medieval fortifications over time and became the residence of the Lords of Beaujeu before being converted into a winery in 1765.

It was its 19th-century renovation that gave it its current appearance, with its mullioned and pointed-arch windows, its superb arbour-lined driveway, and its English-style park featuring an artificial stream and a small rock-work bridge. The atmosphere is straight out of a period film, giving the impression of stepping back in time the moment you step through the estate’s gates…

By choosing to host your seminar here, you can be sure to recognize your key employees and enhance your company’s brand image. If you’d like to organize a strategic planning session or a professional event focused on innovation or sustainable development, our estate is the perfect setting for these topics.

Completely renovated interiors that combine charm and comfort

Taken over in 2014 by Denis Garnier and Fabienne Vilain, Château de Champ-Renard has reinvented its winemaking operations and now produces eco-friendly wines. Above all, its interiors have been renovated in the true spirit of the French art of living, highlighting its timeless charm while providing all the necessary modern comforts.

The result: two stunning reception rooms on the garden level are perfect for hosting your product launch parties, conferences, or group meetings, while smaller spaces are ideal for your subcommittees.

For business meetings of up to 40 people in a setting that’s as luxurious as it is intimate, our lounges welcome you upstairs in a boudoir-style atmosphere. Their decor—a blend of antique furniture restored by local artisans, works of art, and contemporary pieces—is sure to impress your colleagues and business partners. You can also host your business lunches in the Salle des Boiseries.

Finally, our English-style park is the perfect venue for your team-building activities, as well as a prestigious cocktail reception or garden party for up to 250 people.
