Domaine du Mas Bégon can host a company seminar, an end-of-year dinner, a product launch or a wedding for up to 120 seated guests indoors, with a 650 m² main courtyard for larger receptions outside and beds for 52 people on site. The estate is a renovated stone mas on six hectares of parkland at the edge of Aigues-Vives, in the Gard, between Nîmes and Montpellier.
Seminars and company events
The estate is hired in full, for one day or several, which suits residential seminars and leadership retreats where the team should have the place to itself. Two meeting rooms of 50 m² and 160 m² come with Wi-Fi. The two terraces and the main courtyard work for a standing dinner or a welcome drink at the end of a working day.
The site also lists product launches, fashion shows, film shoots and end-of-year meals among the events it takes. For team building, the six hectares leave room for pétanque and outdoor games, and the outdoor pool area with its slides and paillote bar is open to guests. The estate says it can arrange a helicopter landing area on request. Nearby, a riding center is about 2 km away and a canoe and kayak club about 3 km away, and wine tastings can be booked with partner cellars.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings are a core part of the business. The two reception rooms seat 120 guests for the wedding dinner. A wooded park is used for outdoor secular ceremonies, the terraces for the drinks reception and breakfast the next morning, and the courtyard for receiving a large party. A room for the bride is listed among the services. Christenings, birthdays and anniversaries are also hosted. Visits of the estate are offered in English, French, Dutch, Spanish and Portuguese.
Rooms and capacities
The two reception rooms measure 50 m² and 160 m² and are modular. Together they seat 120 people. Outside, the main courtyard covers 650 m², and two terraces and a park complete the setting. The site does not publish a standing capacity for the courtyard or the park, so confirm numbers for a cocktail-style event when you ask for a quote.
Accommodation
The estate sleeps up to 52 guests. The master house holds one luxury suite and five double rooms, each with a private bathroom and toilet, a dressing area, air conditioning, heating and Wi-Fi. A village of lodge tents adds space for 40 more guests. The estate also works with other lodgings nearby when a group is larger. Breakfast and housekeeping are offered. A wellness area with a heated indoor pool, a hot tub, a sauna and a massage table is available as a paid option.
Catering
There is no in-house restaurant: you bring your caterer, or choose one from the estate's list of partners. The caterer gets a dedicated 50 m² kitchen next to the main reception room, with two cold rooms, a storeroom, work surfaces and a washing-up area. A caterer's truck can park on site and plug into the power supply. The partner list also covers DJs and wedding planners.
History and setting
Mas Bégon is a former wine estate built in the Languedoc style, in white regional stone, with a master house the owners date to the 18th century. It has been fully renovated. Vineyards surround the property, and the medieval village of Aigues-Vives is just beyond the gates.
Getting there
From the A9 motorway, take exit 26 (Le Grau-du-Roi) toward Aigues-Vives, then follow signs for Aubais. The estate is 1 km out of the village on the right, at 490 route d'Aubais. The high-speed rail stations of Nîmes and Montpellier, and the airports of both cities, are about 20 minutes away by car. Private parking is on site, and the estate has made provision for guests with reduced mobility.
