Perfectly Located Dordogne Conference Venue with Premium Corporate Facilities
Easy Access to Château le Mas de Montet from Major Transport Hubs
Located in Petit-Bersac (24600) on the Dordogne/Charente border, Château le Mas de Montet offers excellent accessibility despite its serene countryside setting.
For those of you flying in, this venue is well-served by multiple airports: Bergerac (1h15m), Bordeaux (1h30m), Limoges (2h), Poitiers (2h), and La Rochelle (2h). If you prefer rail travel, the Angoulême TGV station is just 45 minutes away, providing convenient high-speed connections from Paris and beyond. Other regional centres are also within easy driving distance. It’s about 40 minutes south of Angoulême, 40 minutes west of Périgueux, and 1h30m east of Bordeaux.
In many ways, this place gives you the best of both worlds for your conference or corporate event. You’ve got that rural tranquility paired with genuine practical accessibility, ensuring your attendees can focus on your agenda without transport headaches.
Purpose-Built Corporate Meeting Spaces with Character
Unlike your standard urban conference centers, this historic venue provides more characterful meeting environments that can perhaps better stimulate creativity and engagement. There are five distinct meeting spaces, including:
- Four versatile conference rooms within the historic château
- One larger seminar room in an annexed building, ideal for plenary sessions
All meeting spaces benefit from complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi coverage and natural daylight, creating environments conducive to productive meetings. The other plus point here is that the ground floor seminar room has tons of flexible configuration options. It doesn’t matter if you want circular tables for breakout sessions or auditorium-style seating, you’ve got the option to do either (or both).
Comfortable Accommodation for Extended Business Events
Another bonus is there’s no need to arrange separate accommodation for your event. There are ten luxury en-suite bedrooms that provide high-end spaces for your attendees to relax and recharge. Each room offers:
- Premium bedding and quality towels
- Complimentary Wi-Fi
- Private en-suite bathrooms
For your VIP attendees or keynote speakers, the Superior Suite delivers exceptional comfort with a king-size canopy bed, separate lounge area, office space, and deluxe bathroom with both shower and bathtub. The suite also offers beautiful views over both the pool/garden and park areas.
Lastly, there’s "La Maison aux Volets Bleus," a self-contained cottage just 35m from the château. This provides additional flexibility for team leaders or those requiring extra privacy during your corporate event.
If you need to accommodate guests above the on-site capacity, there are several nearby hotels and guesthouses, including but not limited to:
Beyond the Boardroom: Extensive On-Site Amenities
What truly sets this venue apart for corporate events is the range of amenities available for downtime and team activities:
- 60 hectares of wooded parkland ideal for outdoor exercises, walking meetings, or simply clearing the mind
- Heated outdoor swimming pool with furnished sun deck for relaxation between sessions
- Dedicated spaces for informal breakout discussions and networking
- Excellent catering options with flexibility for working lunches through to formal dinners
Their on-site experienced team can also tailor activities, entertainment options, and catering solutions to complement your business objectives. So you’ll never want for anything here.
How We Can Help Make Your Corporate Event Special at Château le Mas de Montet
The château is absolutely gorgeous, but we know from experience that stunning historic venues sometimes need a bit of technical help to make modern business events run smoothly. That's where we might be able to lend a hand!
Hire Sound Equipment That Makes All The Difference
Those beautiful high ceilings and stone walls at Château le Mas de Montet can potentially create tricky acoustics for presentations. We can supply you with top-end sound equipment that works nicely with the space. Nothing too intrusive, just enough to make sure everyone can hear your speakers clearly. For instance, a couple of well-placed PA speakers and some wireless mics can transform how your message gets across, especially in those larger château rooms.
Utilise TV Screens That Everyone Can Actually See
This château boasts plenty of natural light in its meeting spaces (which is a plus), but it can make traditional projectors a bit difficult to see clearly. That’s why it makes sense to hire some LED TV screens that look great even in bright rooms. It’ll eliminate having to choose between closing those lovely curtains or seeing your presentation properly! It's a small touch that your attendees will really appreciate.
Invest in Staging Rental to Transform Your Space
Sometimes, just raising your speakers up a bit can change the whole dynamic of a corporate event. We have modular staging available, which is really flexible. We can create anything from a simple platform for your CEO to a full panel discussion setup. It's amazing how a proper stage setup can make even informal talks feel more professional and focused.
Benefit from On-the-Day Technical Support
Perhaps the nicest thing we can offer is simply having someone on hand who knows what they're doing with all the equipment. Our technical team can be there to set everything up beforehand and stick around during your event just in case you need aspects such as the sound system or mic levels adjusted. Whether you need sound mixing or audio-visual direction, it's just one less thing for you to worry about when you've got a business event to run.
