Château de l'Oseraie
Private Château Accommodation & Event Hire
OPTIONAL PRE-BOOK CATERING: (examples)
Most catering requests are possible, either prepared in-house by a qualified chef or via a local Traiteur if you prefer. We will always do our best to meet your requests, but as we are in a very small village without a shop we do need advance notice.
Tailored Breakfast arrangements can be provided if requested and agreed in advance. This can be anything from a continental breakfast buffet to individually cooked hot breakfast items (examples)
PICNICS:
Picnic baskets or hampers are available with prior notice. The cost will reflect your choice of contents. You are welcome to picnic in the Chateau grounds, or take the hamper out with you on a day trip.
LUNCH or EVENING MEALS:
Lunch or evening meals can be requested and pre-ordered either in-house or from an external Traiteur. Please discuss your requirements and preferences to obtain priced menu suggestions for your consideration .
ALLERGIES , DIETARY RESTRICTIONS:
For your safety and enjoyment, when booking any optional on-site catering it is absolutely ESSENTIAL to please advise us in advance of any food allergies or intolerances .
If notified, we can provide appropriate menu suggestions for your advance review and confirmation or adjustment. Specialist dietary items you request or which are required are not necessarily widely available at very short notice but can usually be sourced with sufficient notice.
Your meal will always be carefully prepared to meet your specifications, preferences and any notified allergy or dietary requirements or restrictions.
We want you to enjoy your meal so please let us know of any allergies or preferences
