Château du Parc Saint-Lambert hosts seminars, training days, company evenings and weddings for 10 to 350 guests. It offers four seminar rooms, two reception halls and 63 beds in 23 bedrooms. The estate is in Saint-Lambert-la-Potherie, less than 15 kilometers from the center of Angers, surrounded by woodland and meadows, with about 3,000 square meters of indoor and outdoor space dedicated to events.
Seminars and company events
The château takes groups from 10 to 300 people for seminars, residential seminars, training sessions and company parties. Small working groups use the Salon des Boiseries, a wood-paneled room with old parquet, set for 32 in theater style or 14 around a U-shape. The Salon des Lumières, a bright room with high ceilings, takes 20 in classroom or U-shape layout and 60 for a meal. Larger plenaries move to the Pavillon d'Hébé, for 150 in theater style, or to the Orangerie, for 300.
The grounds give teams plenty to do between sessions: a golf practice range with 30 bays, a botanical trail, a pétanque court and wide meadows. The team proposes a selection of event providers to help prepare the program. Previous corporate clients mention two-day seminars with the group sleeping on site.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings are central to the estate. Couples can prepare in the château salons, hold a secular ceremony in the park, in front of the château fountain or under the covered terrace of the Pavillon d'Hébé, then serve dinner in the Orangerie under its chandeliers or in the château salons for a smaller party. Some couples marry at the village church and arrive by the bridle path. A brunch the next day can be held at the Pavillon d'Hébé or in the Bar Lounge. The château also sells a smaller wedding formula for 50 guests, on weekends or weekdays.
Rooms and capacities
The Orangerie, the main reception hall, has large arcades and glass roofs: 300 in theater style, 130 in classroom style and 350 at a cocktail. The Pavillon d'Hébé, with a covered terrace, a palm garden and a pool, takes 150 in theater style, 60 in classroom, 50 in U-shape and 200 at a cocktail. The Salon des Lumières seats 60 for a meal or 80 at a cocktail. The Salon des Boiseries takes 32 in theater style, 20 in classroom, 14 in U-shape and 40 at a cocktail. The Bar Lounge and the Igloo, a stone vault with colored lighting, each take 20.
Hire includes the Orangerie reception furniture, the Igloo's lit furniture and garden furniture for the number of guests in your contract. A video projector, ceremony armchairs and other items can be added.
Accommodation
The estate has 63 beds in 23 bedrooms across three buildings. The château has 10 bedrooms with 25 beds, a gîte has 6 bedrooms, and the Colonie, a former holiday-camp building, has 7. Bedrooms and extra furniture can be booked through the estate's online client area.
Catering
Catering is not run in-house. The team provides a selection of trusted suppliers, so confirm the caterers you may use and the kitchen arrangements when you request a quote.
History and setting
The château dates from the Belle Époque. The Salon des Boiseries is where Count Tessié de la Motte received guests. The orangery takes its model from 17th-century buildings that sheltered fruit trees in winter. Owners Audrey and Fabrice run the estate with a small team.
Getting there
The château is 15 minutes from Angers train station by road. Angers is about 1 hour 30 minutes from Paris by train, which makes a day seminar from the capital possible. Guests arriving by car reach the estate easily from central Angers.
