The useful differences.

There are 321 named listings in this collection. Of these, 303 have a supported guest figure, ranging from 20 to 600. 308 record overnight places. Missing figures are left out of comparisons.

Start with the overnight plan

The largest recorded sleeping totals in this collection include Domaine Le Mezo (240), Domaine d'Essendiéras (200) and Manoir de Longeveau (190). These are capacity comparisons, not recommendations or confirmed room availability.

Keep your visits close together

The recorded locations include Paris, Avignon, Nîmes and Juillac. Open the map before arranging visits; a shared collection label does not mean the properties are close enough for one day.

Compare the same hire period

292 listings have supported starting prices, from €2,300 to €120,000. Read the package wording on each page before comparing: nights, rooms, meals and staffing can differ.
