The Venue History

19th century · English-influenced manor blending English and south of France styles

Manoir de l'Etang was originally built in the 19th century by an English lord, and later lovingly restored and cared for by a renowned architect. The manor sits within a 5-hectare park in the medieval village of Mougins, a village famously beloved by Picasso, and looks out across a lotus-covered pond that forms part of the larger Fontmerle pond.
