La Villa Rochette hosts seminars of up to 80 people in theatre layout and private receptions of up to 120 guests, always on an exclusive basis. The house stands in Forges-les-Bains, in the Haute Vallée de Chevreuse, about 30 minutes south of Paris. It is an early 19th-century residence with 200 square meters of rooms, a covered terrace of 120 square meters and a fully enclosed park of more than one hectare.

Seminars and company events

The villa rents the whole property to one group at a time, which keeps meetings confidential. The team offers an all-inclusive approach covering speakers, activities, logistics, accommodation and catering. Formats listed on the site include sales training, management committees, team cohesion days and company evenings. The Chapelle room seats 80 in theatre layout, and the Sequoia room is also set up in theatre configuration.

Every meeting room has natural light, a full technical setup and a view of the park, and every room opens onto a terrace for breaks. Some rooms connect through wide openings, so workshop space can be added together. Equipment includes large screens, speakers, a microphone, Wi-Fi 6 that also covers the park, flipcharts, whiteboards and a speaker kit with markers, sticky notes and pads. On-site activities named by the villa are horse coaching, building and racing a vehicle, an escape game, a cooking workshop and a chain reaction challenge. A dedicated team, advice on preparation and room layout adjusted to your theme are part of the offer.
