FILM & PHOTOGRAPHY AT DOMAINE DE LA VÈNE
A location unlike
anywhere else.
THE LOCATION
Ancient stone, extraordinary light, and complete privacy.
Domaine de la Vène offers a rare combination for film and photography productions: an authentically restored French estate with centuries of character, set within 630 acres of private land in a region renowned for its exceptional natural light.
The estate includes the main house and its interiors, with flagstone floors, antique furniture, original beams, and rooms furnished with Georgian, Victorian, and French pieces collected over decades. Outside, the grounds offer terraces, ancient olive trees, a large pool, stone outbuildings, and open countryside stretching to the Pyrenees.
