The Domaine de Beauregard rents three buildings for meetings, seminars, cocktail receptions, banquets and weddings: a château whose largest room holds 100 guests, an annex with three rooms of 70 and a 40-bed lodging unit, and a farm with a room for 50. The estate sits in a 23-hectare wooded park on the banks of the canal that links Caen to the sea, in Hérouville-Saint-Clair, Calvados. It has belonged to the town since 1977, and the municipal booking office handles every rental, for private clients and for companies alike.
Seminars and company events
For a business group, the estate works as a small campus. A plenary session of up to 100 people can take the château's large room, while the meeting room on the upper floor and the two lounges serve for breakout work. The annex adds three rooms of 70, which suits a seminar that splits into parallel workshops or a training course that needs its own space for several days. The farm, with a room for 50, an office and a fitted kitchen, can run as a self-contained base for a team day. The park and terraces take marquees, tents and exhibition structures, and a private car park offers 150 spaces.
Weddings and receptions
The town lists weddings, banquets and cocktail receptions among the events it hosts at Beauregard. A couple can hold the meal in the château's large room for 100 guests, use the lounges for the drinks, and set up a marquee in the park for a larger outdoor moment. The 40 beds of the annex can house family and friends on site.
Rooms and capacities
The château has three character rooms, including the large room for 100 and a room for 40, a small lounge and a large lounge, a meeting room upstairs and a ground-floor kitchen. The annex has three rooms of 70 guests each, a kitchen and the lodging unit. The farm has one room for 50, an office and a fitted kitchen. Technical sheets for each building and the current rates are available from the town.
Accommodation
The annex includes a lodging unit with 40 beds. It suits residential seminars, sports or youth groups and wedding guests who want to stay on the estate.
Catering
Each building has its own kitchen, and the town can lend tableware. The official pages do not name an in-house caterer, so organisers should confirm with the booking office how meals are provided.
History and setting
Beauregard was once part of the fief held by Colbert. The château mixes Renaissance and Gothic influences. In the middle of the 19th century it became the country retreat of Eugène Lecesne, a shipowner from Le Havre. After the Second World War the State bought it and lent it to the ORTF, the national broadcaster, which used it each summer for holiday camps. Today the park also hosts the Festival Beauregard, a world cultures day, show jumping and rugby events, as well as the Ornavik historical park, a treetop adventure course and a water sports base.
Getting there
The estate lies on the Ancienne Route de Ouistreham, on the edge of Caen, with its own car park. The booking office answers every day from 8 am to noon and from 1 pm to 5 pm.
