Château de Florzé hosts seminars, company receptions, weddings and private parties for up to 400 standing guests, with 40 beds on site. The estate stands in Florzé, in the municipality of Sprimont, at the edge of the Ardennes in Wallonia. Six spaces can be hired alone or combined: the château, the fenil, the écurie, the grange, the courtyard and the park.
Seminars and company events
The owners offer the site for corporate use: retreats, training days, work meetings, product presentations, conferences and incentives. Team building is listed as a separate activity. The buildings are described as flexible, so a working group can take the smaller salons of the château while a plenary session or a dinner runs in a larger building. Access the day before the event is possible, which helps when a room needs to be prepared or equipped.
Weddings and receptions
The venue lists weddings, family parties, birthdays, christenings, anniversaries and similar private celebrations. Cocktails and seated dinners can be organized, and guests can sleep on site. The inner courtyard was recently renovated and has a mineral finish. The owners present it as a space for exhibitions, entertainment and decoration. The park can be used in every season.
Rooms and capacities
The château has five salons, one of them a bar, on 200 square meters in total. They hold up to 170 guests seated and 400 standing. The grange is an independent building of 140 square meters with its own kitchen. It holds up to 140 guests seated, 300 standing, or 180 to 200 in theatre layout. It is a former cowshed that keeps a raw character, has wheelchair access and Wi-Fi, and is not heated, so the owners say it can be used only when the weather allows. The fenil and the écurie each have a ground floor and an upper level. The official pages do not give their capacities, so ask the owners for figures before you plan a layout.
Accommodation
The château has 14 bedrooms for two guests, each with its own bathroom and toilet: seven on the first floor and seven on the second. Two dormitories of six beds share a bathroom. In total the site counts 40 beds. The owners state that the château is not a hotel. There is no room service and no breakfast, and sheets, duvet covers and bath linen are not supplied, although each bed has a duvet, pillows and a bedspread. Breakfast must be arranged by the organizer or the caterer. Wheelchair access exists on the ground and first floors, not on the second.
Catering
The choice of caterer is free, and the owners can suggest providers for a range of budgets. Two suppliers are imposed. Soft drinks and beer come from the Brasserie Corman in Sprimont, and sound and lighting come from the technical company MGS, which knows the buildings well. The choice of DJ is free.
History and setting
Several generations of women have managed the property one after another, and the owners tell this story on their site. They also note that the name Florzé is linked to flowers. The buildings are grouped around a courtyard, with a park behind.
Getting there
The château is at Route du Comte 3, 4140 Florzé. A car park for 300 cars is on site, divided into four zones. The official site does not describe public transport.
