Private Events & Weddings

Tailored

On a 15 hectares park, nestled in Mediterranean flora at the top of a hill, the Castle of Ponders composes with its gardens and park a privileged setting for your private receptions, christenings, weddings, family gatherings…

Restoration of the building has taken time to realize itself, reasonably, sustainably, in constant concern to preserve its soul and architecture. Conciliating harmoniously authenticity and modernity, the Château de Pondres wants to meet the requirements of comfort, functionality and wellbeing indispensable for an excellent hospitality. With a variety of private dining rooms including the more intimate Musique Room and Reception Room, along with the larger Etats Généraux Room, there’s ample space to suit celebrations of all sizes. If you prefer, you can even hire exclusive use of the hotel for your event to ensure the utmost privacy.
