Château Saint-André, nestled in Mareuil-sur-Lay in Vendée, stands on the former site of a parish church, with remnants of Romanesque windows and original walls still visible among the grounds. Built circa 1890, the château occupies a 5-hectare park featuring magnificent views of the Lay Valley bell tower and multiple rose gardens including the 'Clos des Roses et des Clématites.' The estate showcases extensive roseraies and orchid collections, with white storks nesting on the property since 2008, having produced over 15 chicks. The venue operates as an elegant event destination with luxury guest rooms including the canopied 'Venise suite,' accommodating up to 150 seated guests or unlimited cocktail attendees. Partnerships with Champagne Taittinger and refined dining options distinguish this château as a premier venue for weddings, seminars, and celebrations.
