The villa offers full exclusivity for weddings of up to 120 guests across four named spaces including the Garden, Beach, Dining Rooms and ecological swimming pool, with eight en-suite bedrooms sleeping 15 on-site. The venue welcomes external caterers, children and disabled access.
The Venue History
Early 20th century · Arcachon seaside architecture with Italian influence, combining stone, brick and wood
Built in 1903 as a family seaside residence, Villa la Tosca is considered one of the best examples of Arcachon architecture with Italian influence. Discovered in 2005 and lovingly restored to its former calling as a family home, the renovation was guided by an architect of the Bâtiments de France with reference to original 1903 photographs.
