Domaine La Terrasse des Oliviers hosts day and residential seminars, company evenings, team-building days, weddings and family celebrations, for up to 250 guests. It offers four meeting rooms, three reception rooms, a 400 square meter terrace, one hectare of enclosed grounds and 14 bedrooms that sleep 52. The estate stands at 538 route du Plessis in Mansigné, in the Sarthe, with a view of and direct access to the Mansigné lake.
Seminars and company events
The estate sells seminars by the day or with overnight stays. Four flexible meeting spaces take groups of 50 to 180 people: Les Bleuets (20 m²), Les Lauriers (30 m²), Clémentine (50 m²) and Les Oliviers (240 m², air-conditioned, with a view of the lake). Equipment on site includes a projector, flipcharts, a DVD player, a television and screens.
After work sessions, groups can use the leisure park on the lake for team building on the water or on land: pedal boats, paddleboarding, an aqua park, orienteering, golf or archery. The 30 square meter room can switch from a meeting room to a games room for a themed evening. The estate also runs themed evenings and shows, and offers a welcome and shuttle service from the railway station.
Weddings and receptions
The estate is rented for weddings, birthdays, christenings, wedding anniversaries and New Year's Eve. Three reception rooms are set with tables and chairs, and guests have access to the terrace, the grounds, a marquee, a large car park and a children's playground with slides, swings and a soccer field. Groups are welcomed from Friday at 11 a.m. to Monday at 11 a.m., so a wedding can run over a full weekend. Couples can bring their own caterer, who works in the professional kitchens, or use the estate's own catering.
Rooms and capacities
The largest room, Les Oliviers, covers 240 square meters and faces the lake. The estate states up to 250 guests for a reception, with a 400 square meter terrace and a one-hectare garden.

Catering
The estate runs its own catering service on site: buffets, table service or garden parties for events, and breakfast and dinner for hotel guests, cooked with fresh and local produce. For weddings and private parties, outside caterers can use the professional kitchens, which have a 3 cubic meter cold room, a seven-level convection oven, a gas range, a holding cabinet and an industrial dishwasher. The estate also shares a list of partner suppliers.
History and setting
The estate has received private and professional events since 2007, under the direction of its founder, Mr. Charlot. The lake leisure park offers a supervised beach, tennis, pétanque, a multisport court and fishing spots, and a 3.6 kilometer path runs around the lake.
Getting there
The estate is close to the A11 and A28 motorways, about 30 minutes from the Le Mans 24 Hours circuit and around 20 to 30 minutes from the La Flèche zoo. Ask about the shuttle from the station when you book a seminar.
