In Castets, in Landes, Domaine de la Palue hosts weddings, family receptions and corporate events in a countryside setting. The estate covers 18 hectares of meadows and woodland around a 2.5-hectare lake. A former manor house and renovated buildings make up the event spaces, which organisers can hire exclusively to enjoy the estate over several days.
For celebrations, the 133 m² reception room can accommodate up to 120 people. A non-religious ceremony can be held by the water, and a professional kitchen is available for the caterer chosen by the organisers. The estate lets organisers choose their own suppliers, while also being able to share contact details for partner suppliers. Several exclusive-hire options allow organisers to set aside enough time for preparations, the reception and time together after the celebration.
Businesses can also hold seminars, meetings, training sessions, conferences, exhibitions and team-building days here. Alongside the reception room, an equipped meeting room accommodates smaller groups of up to 49 people. Outdoor spaces and activities such as canoeing, stand-up paddleboarding, cycling, pétanque and woodland walks can add to the programme.
On-site accommodation includes bedrooms in the manor house, with a stated total capacity of 15 people, and an 80 m² gîte that can accommodate up to four people. The suite has an indoor jacuzzi and a terrace overlooking the lake. Nearby accommodation offered by partners can increase the overall capacity. The estate is between Bordeaux and Biarritz, around fifteen minutes from the ocean.
