Description

Spaces and capacities: The Château de la Barbelinière invites you into its three superb barns dating from the 17th century. Perfectly renovated in exposed stone, these magnificent rooms (2 of 150 m2 each and 1 of 200 m2) can accommodate 80 to 500 seated guests, from May to October. The weather is therefore not a concern at La Barbelinière! The castle's salons, more ceremonial and more delicate, are also available to rent for receptions of 50 to 150 people. A large flame in each of the fireplaces of the three carpeted reception rooms which open in a row gives the atmosphere a warm and comfortable character while reinforcing the majesty of the place. The park and its century-old trees welcome your guests in the shade for an outdoor cocktail. Accommodation : To welcome your privileged guests, La Barbelinière opens its rooms to you. Places with picturesque charm that can accommodate up to 24 of your guests. Three gîtes with 2, 4 and 6 beds complete our accommodation offer. You can also find, in our village itself, numerous gîtes and guest rooms. Other facilities: So that this exceptional weekend is complete and perfect until the end, the Préau/Guinguette de la Barbelinière space offers you a rural and romantic atmosphere for Friday evening in a timeless environment with the possibility of using an oven bread rack from the 16th century, recently renovated. The swimming pool/pool house area welcomes you in a decidedly relaxed atmosphere for your informal Sunday lunch and lets you enjoy this calm and magical place. Finally, a medieval crusher can host wine tasting sessions or just a more intimate, friendly evening. Geographic location : Near the lovely Romanesque church of Thuré, La Barbelinière is easily accessible from the Chatellerault TGV station (1h20 from Paris) and the A10 (5 km).

Personal Message from the Manager

Name of Wedding Contact: Marie-Laure de Bélinay
La Barbelinière is a family home and it is this special atmosphere that our bride and groom and their family appreciate. We open the premises on Thursday morning to all our Saturday brides and grooms so that they can settle in peacefully and gradually make the place their own. We believe that the bond that unites the bride and groom to the place they have chosen is very important on the big day and contributes to the success of the most beautiful day of their lives!

An exceptional 5***** domain
Its numerous spaces allow for different atmospheres throughout the celebration (castle park for the cocktail, beautiful adjoining barns for the dinner, swimming pool area for the brunch, interior of the castle for the children and the preparation of the bride and groom, etc.). There is a lot of accommodation on site and in the nearby surroundings which allows for logistical ease. Marie-Laure and Arnaud, the owners, were unfailingly supportive during our wedding. Always there to give us

Dream wedding in an exceptional setting
The castle and the estate offer an exceptional, authentic and magical setting. We were charmed from the first visit by this place. The garden hosted our cocktail and the Grande Grange our dinner. Everything went perfectly thanks to the always caring support of Marie-Laure. Marie-Laure and her family welcomed our loved ones as if they were part of their own family.

A perfect wedding! 5*
The Château de la Barbelinière is the ideal place for a wedding! The estate is large, which allows you to have a cocktail in the castle gardens, then a meal in the beautiful barns of the castle (enchanting with the sky lit by garlands), and the next day it is possible to have brunch on the edge of the castle. the swimming pool ! We had a wonderful weekend! And the icing on the cake: the owners and in particular Marie-Laure are there to answer all your questions during
