The old barn served as a large reception room, and there is an outdoor space allowing you to get some fresh air, while still sitting on metal chairs around tables. There is a large space behind the reception room allowing the caterer to be comfortably installed.Beautiful place where I was invited to a wedding.

- EEmmanuelle Cotta02/12/2022The owners are very friendlyThe owners are very friendlyWe rented the Prieuré de Lavaray for our wedding in September 2021. This place is sublime, full of charm and history. The courtyard is large and allows you to organize a cocktail party with a good distribution of catering stands. At the end of the day, the priory is lit by a very beautiful light. The dovecote is very cute, and allowed us to organize a small photo exhibition for our guests. The framework in the reception room is so beautiful, that it is not necessary to add a lot of decoration to have a very beautiful wedding room. And finally, we were able to set up a special room for children in the tower room. This was very practical for parents and babysitters. The owners are very friendly and passionate about the history of their property. They are committed to preserving it and making its history known. In short, we recommend this place!We rented the Prieuré de Lavaray for our wedding in September 2021. This place is sublime, full of charm and history.
