Slow Village Biscarrosse Lac takes seminars, team-building days, training sessions, weddings and family celebrations for up to 400 guests, with wooden cabins for overnight stays. The holiday village sits in a pine forest on the shore of a lake in Biscarrosse, in the Landes department of southwest France, about an hour by car from Bordeaux.
Seminars and company events
The site is built for groups. Seminars, workshops and training sessions run in the indoor spaces, and the grounds, the lake and the sports fields serve for team building. On-site activities include padel, beach volleyball, a multisport court and boules, eight walking trails through the forest and along the lake, bike rental, kayaking and swimming, with water sports nearby at Port Maguide. Slow Event, the group's in-house events agency, can take on anything from logistics alone to a fully tailored program. Meeting spaces across Slow Village sites come with Wi-Fi, flipcharts and video projectors, to be confirmed for this village. Groups can come for a single day or stay several days, and the village can be booked for exclusive use.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings are offered with seasonal menus, vegetarian options and local specialties. Ceremonies and receptions can use the lakeside terraces, and the team can add an open-air marquee, a beach tent or other custom structures for larger parties. Birthdays and family gatherings follow the same format.
Rooms and capacities
The village has two indoor reception spaces, an amphitheater and two terraces, for up to 400 guests in total. Casa Bisca is the central multipurpose room, adaptable to plenary sessions, meals or parties. The Nomad Cafe works for evening drinks, quiet or lively. The Terrasse du Lac is the main outdoor living area, and the Terrasse du Panorama looks out over the lake. Capacities for each space are not published.
Accommodation
Guests sleep in wooden cabins and cottages spread across a 10-hectare park, with the lake a short walk away. Six lodge types are listed, from 29 to 70 square meters, with two to four bedrooms and room for four to eight people. The largest, the Cabane Signature Tribu, has four bedrooms and two bathrooms. The village does not publish its total number of lodges, so ask how many beds are free on your dates.
Catering
The chef writes menus from local products for a seated dinner, a cocktail reception or a buffet, with a wine list of white, rose, red and sparkling. In season, the Bar du Lac and Casa Pizza serve homemade dishes on a panoramic terrace.
History and setting
The village is car-free inside and has held the EU Ecolabel since 2021, covering 67 environmental criteria. Concerts and DJ sets run during the summer season, and the Dune du Pilat is within easy driving distance.
Getting there
Bordeaux is about an hour away by road. Arcachon station, served by trains from Bordeaux, is about 30 minutes from the village, and a bus serves Biscarrosse in high season. Bordeaux-Merignac is the nearest airport.
