The Commanderie de Peyrassol is a wine producing estate in the Var region of Provence in the South of France located at just over 1 hours drive from Nice airport. The domain dates back to the 13th century when its vineyards were first used for the production of wine. Today, 800 years later, the estate still produces wine of an excellent quality using age-old artisanal techniques. The Commanderie de Peyrassol is also home to a huge collection of modern sculptures with its gardens full of fascinating works by celebrated contemporary artists. More importantly however, the Commanderie de Peyrassol with its fabulous function spaces is perfectly geared up for weddings.
I have not yet been to visit the Commanderie de Peyrassol but intend to do so very soon. I will of course update this post with more details following my visit. I can already tell you however that the private hire fee is fantastically reasonable at between 2,600 euros and 6,800 euros depending on the season and the day. For this price you have total exclusive use of the entire estate until 5am, tables and chairs for up to 180 people, full post event cleaning and a house manager on site for the duration of your wedding reception. In the meantime I will leave you with a few photos of this beautiful wedding venue in Provence.

Hi Kerry,
Just recently we started planning our wedding for September (yes, the timing is short!). I found your site and a few days later you posted the article about the Commanderie de Peyrassol – perfect timing!
The location of this venue is great for us as we must be married at the hotel de ville of a village about 30 minutes drive away. Because we are not based in the south my future mother-in-law visited the venue. Based on her account plus plenty of photos from our contact at the venue we have signed the contract!
You site is an excellent source of information, well presented and very user-friendly. Thank you so much!

Warm regards,

Hi Kerry,
Please could you kindly send me some information about this venue too? Numbers around 150 persons, and ideally looking at the weekend of the 27 – 28 August 2011.
Many thanks
