Discover the venue: GARANCE
Renting a 17th-century fortified farmhouse for a photoshoot, film production, or professional event offers an authentic setting steeped in history. Located approximately 30 km from Reims, this beautiful, character-filled property captivates with its historic architecture, including a keep and a fireplace both of which are registered as official historic monuments.
Spanning roughly 750 m² of interior space, the residence features two living areas (40 m² and 80 m²), ten bedrooms, and eight bathrooms. The decor curated entirely through the collection of vintage and antique finds blends various eras and influences: 1970s furniture, pieces from the 17th and 19th centuries, folk art, and a "country chic" aesthetic, making it an ideal backdrop for rustic-themed shoots.
Outside, a 3,000 m² flat garden houses a 12-meter-long heated swimming pool. The property also offers parking for 20 vehicles and can accommodate up to 22 guests.
This property stands out for its 17th-century architecture and remarkable heritage features. Its keep and fireplace both registered as historic monuments are a testament to its rich past.
Inside, the carefully curated decor combines antique furniture, 1970s influences, and folk art objects. This unique blend creates a distinctive atmosphere that bridges the gap between a historic manor, a country home, and an eclectic, curated space.
