Today we’re sharing with you where we’d like to host wedding ceremonies, after-wedding drinks, and receptions. We’ll take you into the Orangery, through the alley of century-year-old trees, and onto the terrace. We’ve got big plans and we’re just at the beginning. We hope to start hosting Spring 2024!

Queen’s Escape was inspired by the 4 years the Belgian royal family stayed at Château de La Tuilerie during WWII. In particular, it is for the Queen. The king took shelter at a different location in France. We’ve named each of our guest rooms after great Queens of the past and present from around the world. Margrethe, Eleanor, Catherine, Himiko, Cleopatra, and soon our bridal suite will be ready in honor of Queen Elizabeth II.
With it’s sprawling green meadows, 100-year-old trees, and historic location in the small medieval town of Gluges, the 200-year-old château is truly an escape. With 5 guest rooms to rent and a stunning Orangery, we look forward to welcoming you for a visit or to host your wedding or event.

Love it!!
What was the cost of your chateau?
What are your running costs? What heating system do you have?
What is the weather like in winter in that part of France?
The building is exciting! The floors are marvelous! You have a great potential here for grand weddings!
Advice; whatever you do, don't make it into a Disney Land pistache! It is an old old place and that's it's charm!
I love your new home and your ideas are terrific! I was wondering if you would have a professional kitchen set up in the Chateau for catering the weddings or events? Or would you hire caterers and have a prep kitchen set up in the Orangery for the dinner to be served from there? Also, you will need to have a place for the flowers to be delivered for the wedding or where the florist can set up the flowers and keep them cool prior to the wedding. I love the idea of having the wedding amidst the trees and it would be a beautiful place for photos as well. What ideas do you have if there is rain? I cant wait to see how your restoration unfolds!
Congratulations. Its gorgeous. You showing such detail and moving slowly was wonderful. Can't wait to see journey
A beautiful, beautiful place and I love your plans. However, I was wondering about the gravel on the terrace as I've only seen it used in driveways. Using the terrace for a reception/dancing area is a great idea but may work so much better without the gravel. Do you know what's underneath? If there are tile slabs it might make sense to remove it. I'm looking forward to watching each step of your journey.
Beautiful property, lots of options. Love the large windows and fireplace surround. I would love a place just like this to enjoy renovating and to just live in as a family home, but realise it’s sometimes not financially possible todo this with a property like this. One can only dream!!! Best wishes from Australia x
So much better without the music ❤ Love the L’Orangerie , the wood & tiles are spectacular!
Your alée with chandeliers idea is fabulous. Work with flagstone spaced with groundcover though or another option over gravel. It's horrid to walk over in heels, it gets everywhere and it rings cheap. If you have chandeliers overhead, you need high end underfoot.
Also be very very careful with working around those trees and disturbing them. It's pretty easy to shock them with too much work in that area, and die off would be tragic.
Beautiful, I think this would make a fabulous wedding or banquet venue.
Excellent sound today. I love 😍 your ideas. The chateau is so well laid out but I agree there seems to be such a massive bare space in front of the chateau. It is crying out for some gardens and a big fountain to soften the area. Maybe also big pots of flowers 💐 on the terrace to add some colour. Big beds of lavendar around the terrace with also soften and add a beautiful smell.
Everything about the Orangerie is just stunning.
The steps look gorgeous
Perhaps the ceremonies should be held away from road noise.
Beautiful setting. (For weddings guests, where are the wcs?)
I have a suggestion. If you could open some kind of arches on either side of the doors into the hallway of the orangery ,you could connect the rooms into a great hall which would serve many more people for events or just create a dancing space.
Hi, loving your ideas and look forward to seeing your progress.
your aligned trees are called l'allée (fem.) speak aleeh.
