Château de Chérimont runs company events for 10 to 1,200 people, from a seminar in one of its two meeting rooms to a family day with clay shooting, off-road driving and marquees on a 45-hectare private park. The estate is in Andenne, in the Belgian province of Namur, above the Meuse valley.
Seminars and company events
The in-house Event Team builds each program around the client's goal and budget: incentives, team building, product launches, family days, client hospitality, staff parties and rallies for classic cars, 4x4s or motorbikes. Two equipped seminar rooms on the first floor of the château have adjustable layouts, a projector, a screen and Wi-Fi. Between sessions, groups can move outside to the estate's activities: clay shooting, off-road driving, paintball, field target, archery and trekking. A turnkey formula covers the welcome, rooms, activities, catering, extra structures and staff. The estate can be privatized for a day or a whole weekend, and helicopters have a special authorization to land and take off. The site is open seven days a week and has been organizing outdoor events for more than 25 years. Private groups also come for birthdays, bachelor and bachelorette parties and youth outings.
Rooms and capacities
The estate states a capacity of 10 to 1,200 guests across its spaces. Indoors there are the two seminar rooms, a club house and a restaurant room that can be booked privately. Outdoors, a large covered terrace looks over the Meuse valley, and marquees and pagodas can be set up on the esplanade in front of the château, with flooring, lighting, canopy and heating on request. An organic tent, a stretch star tent or an orangery structure are other options. No capacity is published for each room.
Accommodation
There are no bedrooms listed at the château itself. The estate points to addresses nearby: four gîtes at Domaine sur les Sarts, including the Gîte de la Tour for 12 to 18, the Gîte du Golf d'Andenne for 7 to 9, Le Grand Gîte des Petits Chevreaux for up to 48 in 13 bedrooms, and the three-star Hotel Beauregard at the Casino de Namur, with 47 rooms.
Catering
Professional kitchens work year-round, and a chef draws up a menu for each event. Formats range from sandwich platters and brasserie dishes to a large outdoor barbecue or a seated gourmet dinner. The restaurant room can be reserved for the group, and the catering arm, Chérimont Kitchen, has its own site.
History and setting
The château stands at the center of a 45-hectare private park on the heights of Andenne, with the club house and covered terrace facing the Meuse. The open grounds leave room for vehicle events, inflatable games, bubble soccer and Segway rides as well as the main activities. Photo and video teams, including aerial footage, DJs, bands, sound and lighting can be booked through the estate.
