Our approach
Why organise a « home away from home » seminar
A setting that loosens tongues
Far from the codes of conventional business hotels, a privatised venue puts your teams at ease faster, for an executive committee as well as a cohesion seminar.
Total exclusivity
The venue is reserved for you alone: no other guests, complete freedom over timings and the layout of the spaces.
A human-scale format
From 6 to 150 people depending on the venue, ideal for an executive committee or a small-group cohesion seminar.
Field selection
Other privatised venues for a home-away-from-home seminar
- Le Donjon – Domaine Saint Clair in Étretat: a four-star hotel that can be privatised in its entirety (up to 25 rooms), restaurant and meeting room included.
- Les Manoirs de Tourgéville, near Deauville: the largest venue in the selection, 57 rooms and suites, 2 meeting rooms, a cinema room and a well-being area with pool and spa.
- Les Jardins de Coppélia, a typically Norman manor house for a seminar in the countryside.
- L’Auberge de la Source and the Hôtel Spa Les Pins de César, two charming addresses for an executive committee in a small group.
- Les Maisons de Léa in Honfleur: a former salt store and three fishermen’s houses joined into a hotel-spa-restaurant, with four unusual meeting rooms for 2 to 100 people, including a Refectory with a deliberately « home away from home » atmosphere.
Another option
