Beautiful accomodation. Wonderfully friendly host. Nothing was a problem. Pool was perfect! Several other perfect additions available too, like the jacuzzi, fantastic massages, wine, etc. We would love to stay here again!

I rented the Cuban room and three cottages to celebrate my birthday at Domaine de Beaufort, and it was the best choice I could have made. Judith and Xavier are warm, helpful, and incredibly kind hosts. The room is absolutely perfect for this kind of event; it's cozy, beautifully decorated, all the furniture is perfect, and the giant screen/tablet is an amazing bonus! I recommend this place 1000%, and thank you again for everything. Violette

It's going to be difficult to find the right words to describe what we've experienced since choosing to get married at Domaine de Beaufort. The estate, and especially the grand reception hall, needs nothing more to be beautiful and authentic. We immediately envisioned ourselves there. Organizing our wedding remotely, we instantly connected with Judith, who put us at ease. Judith and Xavier have created an estate with a variety of spaces, each as welcoming as the next. We were able to make full use of all the different areas of the estate throughout the weekend: first, for a reception in the gardens of the cottages, then for our cocktail hour under the decorated canopy, and finally for dinner and the evening reception in the hall, which was simply adorned with a few flowers. The bridal suite is a true haven of peace, and the Cuban lounge was a big hit with the groomsmen for getting ready. Judith listened carefully to our wishes and offered excellent advice to ensure the event ran perfectly. We were able to rent the decorations we wanted from a wide selection, and we chose some of his services, such as the lemonade bar and the punch fountain. His network of vendors is also a real treasure, which meant we were very well supported. Thank you, Xavier and Judith; you are largely responsible for the success of this wedding.
