Château de Deulin is hired in exclusive for seminars, team-building days, weddings and receptions. Its barn seats up to 300 guests for dinner and holds up to 600 for a standing reception, and smaller formats run from 20 to 100 guests in the dining room, tower and chapel. The château stands at Deulin, in the municipality of Hotton in Wallonia, on a 24-hectare estate.
Seminars and company events
The official site names seminars and team-building meetings among the events the château hosts. During an event, the owners do not rent any other part of the property, so the group has the estate to itself. Access is possible a few days before the event to organize and prepare the setup. The estate includes French gardens, waterways and woods, which gives a seminar outdoor space for breaks and activities.
The tower suits seminars of 10 to 70 people. It is independent of the main building and comes with a fully equipped kitchen. The salons in the château are described as suitable for cocktails, dinners, seminars and small concerts, and the rooms can be adjusted to the needs of the event.
Weddings and receptions
The site names weddings among its events, and the barn and outbuildings are the main reception venue. The chapel, dedicated to Saint Remacle, holds about 100 people and is suited to blessings, baptisms and concerts. A couple can combine the chapel, the barn and the gardens in one exclusive booking.
Rooms and capacities
The barn covers 300 square meters. It seats up to 300 for dinner and holds up to 600 for a reception. It comes with a 50-square-meter mezzanine and an 80-square-meter living room.
The tower takes 10 to 70 people. The hunting-themed dining room seats 20 and serves any kind of dinner, from a hunter's meal to a menu of three courses or more. The salons are adjustable. The chapel holds about 100. The barn is open all year.
Accommodation
Bedrooms dating from the 18th century are available in the château. The official site lists them as part of the exceptional Walloon heritage but does not give the number of rooms or beds, so ask the team how many guests can sleep on site.
Catering
The château provides a list of caterers, and the organizer chooses among them. The dining room and the tower kitchen give caterers a working base. Prices and menus are set on request, according to the number of guests and the size of the event.
History and setting
The château was built in 1758 by Guillaume Joseph de Harlez and completed in 1770 by his son Simon-Joseph. It has a U shape in whitewashed brick and blue stone under slate roofs, with an inner courtyard surrounded by outbuildings. Rococo stuccowork by François-Joseph Dukers decorates the interior, and the hunting dining room holds fourteen paintings by Dieudonné Deneux dated 1764. The château has been part of the exceptional heritage of Wallonia since 2002 and is still the home of the family that owns it. At the rear, the park looks over the Ourthe river.
