I cannot recommend Chateau Gassies enough. This venue really understands luxury, comfort, service, and above-all breathtaking spaces. A unique find that has tons of French charm with gorgeous landscapes, as well as modern amenities like air conditioning, updated bathrooms, tennis court, and two striking pool areas. This is one of the few venues we found where the lodging is well-suited to couples with many separate rooms and bathrooms - not just dormitory-style spaces. We were impressed by every area we encountered and it was so nice having grills as well as beautiful kitchens in the gites during our extended stay.

We stayed here on Aug 29, 2021 and booked the full chateau for 5 nights, including having a rehearsal dinner, wedding ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, day-after brunch, and wine tasting event. Throughout the months leading up to the wedding, Geraldine (the owner) was incredibly helpful - would answer all of my extremely detailed questions. Throughout the visit, Geraldine and her staff went above and beyond - helping direct our ceremony, keeping coffee flowing for many hours during breakfast, welcoming vendors so we did not have to, even helping my friend scrub a shirt that got wine spilled on it. I saw 1 review mention a lack of flexibility on behalf of the owners; however, we did not feel this in our stay. We felt they were extremely reasonable in accommodating where they could and were always extremely transparent about what was and was not included in our stay at all points in working with them (and were open about why - for instance, certain French regulations for the neighborhood) . Geraldine's eye for detail keeps every piece of the chateau in immaculate standing for guests.

The multiple spaces on the venue were a huge plus for us - we were able to host events to take advantage of each view. It also means that the venue had high-quality, natural options for hosting cocktail hour and a ceremony if it rains. The areas are fully covered but still outside to take advantage of the landscape without needing to have a tent which was not our style.

As a bonus - the massages at the spa on site were honestly some of the best myself and my guests have had at any 5 star resort!

Thanks again to the chateau team for making our wedding what it was!
