Château Saint Georges

'Le Petit Versailles' of the Riviera

Built in the 19th century by one of the great perfumers of Grasse, Château Saint Georges occupies a privileged position in the hills above the town — within the perfume country that gave France its most celebrated fragrance tradition, and within easy reach of both Cannes and Nice. The three-hectare park is a composition of hundred-year-old olive trees, cypress hedges, and Aleppo pines that frames the château's classical façade in exactly the kind of living architecture that takes centuries to cultivate. Its informal nickname — 'Le Petit Versailles' — was earned not through grandeur alone but through the precision of the ensemble.

The château is offered exclusively, available for hire on a 24-hour residential basis for the wedding party and its guests, who are accommodated within the house for up to 40 people. Packages range from bare-venue hire to all-inclusive wedding organisation, and the property has also served as a setting for gala dinners, luxury retreats, art exhibitions, and high-end photo shoots — testament to an architecture that photographs as well as it celebrates.
