A castle with character, with the mountain in the background.
In Saint-Sixt, at the foot of the Bornes mountain range, the estate comprises a 14th-century castle, an old Savoyard barn, a dovecote, a terrace, and a vast park. Together, they form a place that is historic, natural, and particularly welcoming.
What works well here is the possibility of evolving the day without losing the identity of the place: ceremony in the park or in the Dovecote, cocktail on the terrace, dinner in the Barn, then evening in a more enveloping atmosphere between stone and wood.
Several spaces, the same story throughout the day.
The ceremony
The secular ceremony can take place in the park, with the mountains and the castle as a backdrop. The Dovecote offers a particularly attractive indoor alternative when the weather becomes more uncertain.
The cocktail
The terrace, opening onto the landscape and the outdoor spaces, allows the ceremony to flow seamlessly. Guests can move freely between the park, the castle, and the historic buildings without any interruption to the proceedings.
Dinner
The renovated barn blends stone walls, a timber frame, and the spirit of a Savoyard farmhouse. The venue can accommodate up to 150 seated guests depending on the layout, with a capacity of 130 guests when the entire dinner is served on one level.
The evening
A bar, sound system, customizable lighting and reception areas allow the dinner to gradually evolve into a party, while preserving the warm atmosphere of the Grange.
The charm of the heritage, without losing the warmth of a family home.
What we love about the Château de Saint-Sixt is that it doesn't feel overly solemn. The heritage is there, but the whole place remains vibrant, welcoming, and easy to imagine filled with loved ones.
The contrast between the park, the terrace, and the barn also allows for the creation of several very natural atmospheres. One can begin the day in a bright alpine setting and then end it in a much more intimate space, surrounded by stone, wood, and warm light.
The freedom allowed in choosing service providers is also interesting for building a truly personal celebration, without having to fit the project into a pre-existing formula.
A castle with a real presence., without stealing the spotlight from your story.
The Château de Saint-Sixt brings together what we love about Alpine places: heritage, nature, several atmospheres and enough freedom to create a celebration unlike any other.
