The bride and groom walk back down the aisle together following the conclusion of an outdoor ceremony, held on a grass lawn beneath a large mature tree. The ceremony arch is a white draped teepee-style structure with a crystal chandelier suspended from it, decorated with florals, positioned under the tree canopy. The aisle is lined on both sides with low floral arrangements featuring white ranunculus, blue hydrangeas, blush peonies, and delphinium placed directly on the ground. Guests, approximately 40–50 in total, are seated on wooden benches on either side of the aisle and are clapping or taking photos. The bride wears a fitted white lace gown with a long cathedral veil, and the groom wears a black tuxedo with a bow tie. Five bridesmaids stand to the left in misty sage-blue floor-length dresses holding small bouquets, while four groomsmen in black suits stand to the right. The overall styling is romantic-garden with a soft blue, blush, and white floral palette. Wide shot taken from behind the seated guests looking toward the altar.

A wide-angle nighttime shot of an outdoor wedding reception dinner set up on a lawn, with multiple long rectangular tables arranged in a U or parallel formation, dressed in white linens and set with glassware, candles, and floral centerpieces in warm amber tones. The tables are surrounded by cross-back wooden chairs and lit by warm candlelight and what appears to be an overhead chandelier or hanging light installation suspended from a large mature tree, which is dramatically uplighted in green. The surrounding grounds are dark, with the illuminated table setting and tree forming a focal point against the black night sky. No guests are visible, suggesting the shot was taken before or between service. The composition is a distant wide shot taken from ground level across the lawn, framing the scene through the dark silhouette of hedgerows.

Interior wide shot of a bathroom within what appears to be a renovated French rural property. The space features a freestanding white oval soaking tub with a chrome floor-mounted faucet, positioned in front of a large black-framed steel grid window that overlooks a wooded landscape. The design blends old and new: exposed limestone walls and aged wooden double doors with glass panes contrast with the smooth plywood ceiling, white tiled floor, and a rust-toned tadelakt or resin-finished half-wall behind the tub. A vintage upholstered chair is partially visible near the window. The overall aesthetic is rustic-meets-contemporary, with raw heritage materials paired with modern fittings. No people are present. Potential venue feature image.

An aerial drone shot taken at golden hour showing a French château estate from above. The main building features a round corner tower with a conical slate roof, blue-shuttered windows, and stone façade construction typical of French country architecture. A small outdoor pool is visible adjacent to the main château. The wider estate includes several outbuildings with terracotta and slate roofs, a large open-sided barn or marquee structure in the upper right, and a curved driveway with parked cars visible in the upper left. A plume of white smoke rises from near the marquee area, suggesting outdoor catering or a fire pit in use during an event. The warm, low-angled light casts long shadows across the grounds. Potential venue feature image.

Interior venue shot showing a large open-plan living and dining space inside what appears to be a French country property. The foreground features a long rustic solid-wood farmhouse dining table with mismatched wooden and metal folding chairs, topped with a single metal lantern centerpiece. Overhead hangs a large cylindrical dark metal drum pendant light. The space flows into a sitting area furnished with neutral linen sofas and cushions in sand and taupe tones, arranged around a pallet-style coffee table. A large steel-framed grid window fills the back wall, flanked by table lamps with cream shades. To the left, a stone fireplace mantel with decorative objects sits beside a low wooden media unit with a television. A tall dark walnut armoire bookcase stands to the right alongside framed artwork on white walls. The overall interior palette is warm white, natural wood, and sandy neutrals with a rustic yet refined French country style. Wide-angle interior shot with no people visible. Potential venue feature image.

An outdoor ceremony setup photographed before guests arrive, arranged on an open lawn in front of a large, mature oak tree with a small body of water visible behind it. Seating is arranged in two sections divided by a central aisle, consisting of white plastic garden chairs in the outer rows and darker wooden benches closer to the front. A simple wooden altar or table is positioned at the head of the aisle, with a cream-colored parasol on a stand placed to one side, likely providing shade for the officiant. The overall styling is informal and rustic, with no visible floral arch or decorative ceremony backdrop. Wide shot capturing the full ceremony layout and surrounding wooded landscape.

An indoor reception space set up for a wedding dinner, shot as a wide interior view from one end of the room looking toward large black-framed steel and glass windows that open onto a lush green garden. The space has a high vaulted ceiling with exposed wooden beam rafters, white rendered walls, and warm wood plank flooring. Two long rustic wooden farm tables run the length of the room, set with plates, wine glasses, and tall dark-wood candlestick holders with pillar candles; scattered red and orange flower petals and small decorative elements dot the table runners. Mismatched vintage wooden chairs line both tables, contributing to an eclectic, rustic-boho aesthetic. String lights with globe bulbs are draped across the ceiling, and a single large pendant lamp hangs centrally. To the side, a seating area features green and red striped armchairs arranged on a red patterned rug, alongside a cream mid-century armchair, reinforcing the relaxed, lived-in styling. Potential venue feature image.

Interior wide shot of a guest bedroom, likely within a French château or manor house venue. The room features a double bed with a white upholstered headboard, grey woven throw, striped pillows, and a mustard yellow accent cushion. The headboard wall is lined with a panel of aged wood-framed mirrors, and two ornate glass wall sconces provide warm ambient lighting. Exposed wooden ceiling beams and bare plaster-finish grey walls contribute to a rustic-meets-refined interior style. A dark slate stone sink sits on a wooden washstand in the corner beneath an octagonal Venetian-style mirror with a decorative candelabra mounted above it. A bedside table holds stacked books, a small floral arrangement, and a table lamp. A tall dark grey vertical radiator is visible against the far wall. Potential venue feature image.

About This Venue

A hamlet of old stone you can hire as your own, between the river and unspoilt countryside

A hamlet of old stone above the Anglin River near Le Blanc in the Indre, hired exclusively for weddings of up to 140 guests. Its 6 self-contained houses sleep 28 guests, with shared spaces where everyone comes together.

The Venue History

Late 14th/early 15th century (renovated 1830-1840) · Medieval manor with 19th-century additions

The original building dates to the late 14th or early 15th century, first recorded under Joachim de Louan, Esquire and lord of Grand-Maison, born around 1490. The estate passed through the Barbancois family from 1643, with Silvain de Barbancois (1656-1718) serving as captain in the Royal Piedmont cavalry regiment. Declared national property during the French Revolution in 1793, it changed hands several times before Rene Creuzet des Roches, inventor of an early threshing machine and mayor of Ingrandes, completely renovated the manor between 1830 and 1840, adding a second wing and transforming the vaulted cellar into a terrace. An 1868 history describes it as a charming manor hidden in the grove like a bird's nest, with slate-covered turrets and an elegant belvedere. In 1981 Marie Rouet-Grandclement fell in love with the ruined property and its 400-year-old oak tree overlooking the river Anglin, restoring it over decades before opening it to guests in 2011 with her three children Constance, Paul, and Norma.
