Orgeval is less than 1 ½ h from Charles de Gaulle airport, approximately 2 hours from Calais and Paris, and 45 minutes from Champagne vineyards.

Situated in the heart of the historical region of the " Chemin des Dames ", famous battlefields of the 1st World War. This tiny village nestled in the French countryside will offer you a very peaceful and rustic atmosphere.

The Vendangeoir of Orgeval is located in a tiny village of less than 80 inhabitants, at only a few miles from south LAON, the main city of this region.  It is a beautiful house built in 1775 that hugs a wooded hillside where vineyards prospered until end of the XIX century.
An elegant double staircase leads from the courtyard to the main entrance of the Vendangeoir. The main facade portrays period elegance featuring arched window-ledges and fine keystones of carved floral ornaments.
