Domaine de Villeray hosts residential seminars, incentives, company retreats and private celebrations, with 45 rooms, suites and cottages for up to 100 overnight guests. Meetings take place in three rooms of 60 to 110 m² split between a mill and a château, and the whole estate can be hired on request. The hotel stands at Villeray, in Sablons-sur-Huisne, in the Perche regional natural park in Normandy, about two hours from Paris.
Seminars and company events
The estate has run events for 30 years. Its two sites, the Moulin and the Château, stand about 250 m apart, so a group can work in one and eat or relax in the other. Both sites provide a screen, a projector, Wi-Fi, paperboards, markers, paper and pens, and rooms are set up each morning with mineral water on the tables. Specialist equipment is quoted on request. The team offers reception support, help with incentive programs and catering.
Team-building options include a wine tasting in the cellar, a hot-air balloon flight, a slackline session in the park, a horse-drawn carriage ride and a visit to the Cidrerie du Perche, a local cider house. Canoeing on the Huisne, horse riding, golf, hiking and cycling are available nearby.
Weddings and receptions
The estate mentions festive occasions and private events and offers exclusive hire of the whole property on request. It does not publish a wedding offer, so ask the team for the formats and spaces available.
Rooms and capacities
At the Moulin, the Orangerie covers 110 m² and the Salon Bois 60 m². An island garden on the Huisne sits next to the mill. At the Château, the Salon Blanc covers 60 m² under high ceilings, beside a library lounge and a listed staircase. The hotel does not publish capacities by layout; ask for theatre, classroom or banquet numbers before you fix the program.
Accommodation
Rooms, apartments and suites are spread across the Moulin, the Château and several houses in the Perche style: Maison d'en Haut, Prieuré, Maison de Lana, Maison de Jules, Fournil and Maison la Licorne. Five cottages stand across the estate. In all, the hotel counts 45 units for up to 100 people. Château rooms look over the valley.
The Spa POM, in the château outbuildings, has a 14 m heated indoor hydrotherapy pool, a sauna, a hammam and a relaxation room.
Catering
The gourmet restaurant is in the Moulin. Chefs Séverine Tarenne and Stéphane Héron write a menu built on fresh, seasonal products. The wine list holds about 400 references chosen by Christian Eelsen. Seminar catering is arranged by the hotel team.
History and setting
The Moulin and the Château both date in part from the 16th century. The mill stands on the Huisne river, and the château is set in a 30-hectare park within a wooded estate of about 50 hectares. Villeray is listed as a classified village.
Getting there
From Paris, take the A10 toward Bordeaux and Nantes, leave at Chartres and follow the ring road toward Le Mans, then the N23 toward Nogent-le-Rotrou. About 10 km before Nogent, turn right toward Condé-sur-Huisne; the estate is 2 km further on the left. Villeray lies between Rémalard and Nogent-le-Rotrou, 55 km from Chartres and 70 km from Le Mans.
