Domaine des Trois Lacs hosts seminars, study days, exhibitions, product presentations and weddings for up to 250 guests seated and 350 at a cocktail, with 24 bedrooms on site. The estate is a restored country house with vaulted cellars and a park beside the village's largest lake, at Chérizet in Saône-et-Loire, southern Burgundy. It is open all year.
Seminars and company events
For study days and seminars, the estate builds an à la carte offer around the group's needs. Every meeting room has a screen or a projector, and all rooms are soundproofed, have daylight and Wi-Fi. Lounges, cellars and quiet corners are used for breaks, meals and evening events, and the Harmonie and Grand Gala rooms open onto a terrace for breaks outdoors.
The estate also takes exhibitions and launches. Cars can be shown in the park or in the paved courtyard, and the Grand Gala room suits an art show or a display of a single vehicle.
Weddings and receptions
For a wedding, the whole estate is reserved from Saturday 9 a.m. to Sunday 6 p.m., with set-up possible on Friday afternoon depending on availability. The package includes furniture for the meal and the cocktail, parking, step-free access, a staff member on site throughout, the bridal suite for the Saturday night, drapes and lighting in your colors in the Grand Gala room and colored lighting on the facades. The estate imposes no suppliers, sets no end time for the evening and charges no corkage. Options include aerial photos, chair covers, a turnkey service, a bread oven workshop and a decorator. Christenings, birthdays, family meals and themed evenings are hosted too, from simple room hire to full organization.
Rooms and capacities
The Grand Gala room, upstairs with a stone balcony over the estate, seats 200 at round tables or 250 at long tables. It has an oak dance floor, six HD screens, ten speakers, two microphones, air conditioning and step-free access. The Harmonie room covers 120 m² for 80 to 150 people and, combined with the cellar below, takes a cocktail of 350. The Cave Héritage is a 100 m² vaulted cellar at ground level with step-free access.

The estate has 24 bedrooms, 14 single and 10 twin, for 34 people, each facing the park or the courtyard. In all, it lists 80 beds on site. Two wine-barrel cabins by the lake each hold a double bed, and nearby gîtes take up to 38 people.
Catering
Meals can be traditional menus prepared by the estate's chef, served on the terrace in good weather. For cocktails, guests can move between food stations across the estate, such as an oyster bar in the Caveau Ilona, Burgundy dishes around the Coin Zen fountain or wood-fired pizzas from the two old bread ovens.
History and setting
The main house dates from the 17th or 18th century, depending on the page of the estate's site, and has been fully restored with exposed stone and beams. The park is shaded and looks over the largest of the village's three lakes.
