Château Juvenal can host study days, residential seminars, team-building days, weddings and family celebrations, with exclusive use of the estate and lodging for up to 26 guests. The château, a Provençal bastide built in 1870 with a restored farm alongside, stands on an organic wine estate at Saint-Hippolyte-le-Graveyron, in the Vaucluse, between the Dentelles de Montmirail and Mont Ventoux. The estate opened to weddings and seminars in 2026.
Seminars and company events
The estate sells three formats. A study day includes one or more equipped work rooms, a breakfast or snack, lunch and a choice of activities. A residential seminar adds breakfasts, lunch and dinner, overnight stays and access to the pool and hammam. Team-building days and evenings can include seated meals or cocktails.
Meetings take place in the château's salons and in the outdoor spaces, set up for plenary sessions, workshops or small-group work. The estate provides high-speed Wi-Fi, a screen and a video projector. Lodging takes up to 11 people in single rooms or 24 sharing twin rooms. When the whole estate is booked, the group has the shaded park, the pool and the hammam to itself.
The team builds turnkey programs and can suggest activities on site and in the area: wine tastings and cellar visits, cycling from the door, and walks in the vines.
Weddings and receptions
For weddings, the estate is booked exclusively. The park hosts the secular ceremony, the cocktail and the photos, and the château's lodgings take the couple and their family, up to 26 people. The team puts couples in touch with local caterers, florists, photographers, DJs and musicians, and the estate's wines can be ordered for the day. Birthdays, christenings and family weekends are also welcome, with a meal, a cocktail dinner or an evening party.
Rooms and capacities
The site does not publish a guest number for receptions. Work and reception areas include the château salons, the shaded park and the outdoor spaces around the pool. Ask the team for the capacity of your format, seated or standing.
Accommodation
The château offers bed-and-breakfast rooms and self-catering apartments, rated four-star furnished tourist accommodation. The rooms are Iris, Cerise and Raisin, for two each, and the Suite Genêt, for two to four. The apartments are the Suite Dentelles, for four, the Gîte Luberon, for six, and the Gîte Ventoux, for four. The pool measures 13.5 by 5.5 meters and has a cover. A hammam and a massage room are available, and the former stables provide locked storage for bicycles.
Catering
On site, the estate serves breakfasts, coffee breaks, meal trays, seated meals, cocktails and food-and-wine pairings. Meals can also be taken in partner restaurants nearby. A summer kitchen is available on the grounds.
History and setting
The oldest olive trees on the estate are about 300 years old. A farm stood here by 1815, and in 1831 Joseph-Antoine Nicolet assembled the estate as a hunting lodge with stables. His son-in-law, the engineer Léon Thouvenot, built the château and designed the park in 1870. The name comes from Adrien Juvenal, who married into the family. The park is listed among the three notable 19th-century parks of the Vaucluse. The estate produces organic red, white and rosé wines and AOP olive oil.
