In few words

Want to help your team reconnect with nature? Treat them to a unique nature-focused seminar where productivity and serenity finally meet. Between the Rambouillet forest, inspiring riversides, and playful activities, dive into a natural setting designed for togetherness. Discover a typical day — 24 hours at Campus des Berges de Seine — and let yourself be tempted by the experience.

8:30 AM – Start your day with a warm welcome (the high-temperature kind!)

Your morning begins right in the heart of nature, along the Seine. Here, no horns, no traffic, no rush — just birdsong and barges gliding by as slowly as your stress disappears.
A quiet path leads you to our haven between river and forest. A place made for disconnection — and a deep breath in. You’ve arrived.

To help you join your colleagues quickly, we keep it simple:

  • Step one: drop off your bags — our team handles the rest. Yes, even if you’re the kind who packs your entire life for a one-night stay.
  • Step two: we hand you your room key and a site map to explore freely. Goal: help you locate the perfect tree for your mid-afternoon nap.

No cars from this point on. We bet walking beneath centuries-old oaks will make you happier. Your fellow participants are already there, minds alert… and gently shifting into relaxation mode. Exhale, your nature seminar has officially begun!

9:00 AM – Time to work: observe, create, collaborate!

Welcome to one of our meeting rooms flooded with natural daylight. We love boosting your creativity and productivity while letting you enjoy the benefits of sunshine and the Seine.

Every meeting room is fully equipped with the right tools. And no need to panic if technology isn’t your superpower, our Talent Régisseurs are here to set everything up. Their special skill? Turning you into a projector pro in under two minutes.

The nature effect kicks in quickly: between two ideas, your eyes might follow a butterfly dancing past the window or a bird executing a perfect mid-air loop. Who knows — maybe your next big innovation comes from these unexpected connections. After all, remember Newton and his apple…

If your group is large enough, we have a surprise for you. Our biggest meeting room sits where an Olympic-size pool once stood. Ask nicely and we’ll even show you the hidden door where the original structure is still visible. You don’t need to be a budding Laure Manaudou (our local legend, once trained nearby) to feel the scale of one single lap.

 

12:30 PM – Enjoy a gourmet lunch full of local flavour

The moment of truth has come: who will dare go back for a third helping without blushing?
Everything here is homemade, with local, fresh ingredients. Even our Chef has trouble resisting his own dishes. Don’t worry, we don’t judge. We share!

Explore our generous buffets:

  • Crunch into ultra-fresh local vegetables
  • Enjoy artisanal cheeses worth an entire meal
  • Taste every dessert (yes, every one), and don’t miss our iconic self-serve ice-cream machine. Here, the best way to resist temptation… is to give in.

Settle on the terrace and drink in the view: the treetops stretching to the horizon, the Seine sparkling just below. The perfect atmosphere for laughter, conversation, and negotiating, at least, the last slice of cake.

2:00 PM – Active or relaxing break: choose your rhythm

Free afternoon ahead? At our Campus, nature becomes your playground… or your relaxation cocoon.

Active mode: move, play, challenge yourselves!

Fancy a tennis match? We’re ready for a tie-break worthy of Roland-Garros.
Badminton challenge? Stay sharp, those shuttlecocks have a will of their own.
Prefer a digestive walk? Say hello to our peaceful sheep and buzzing beehives. Pause at one of our tea stations to honour our bees’ hard work.

With so many team-building and sports activities, and all the equipment at hand, creating memorable moments becomes effortless. Keep the energy going!

Zen mode: release the pressure

Head indoors to our sports pavilion: Relax in a jacuzzi with panoramic forest views, a luxury you might boast about in your next meeting. Swim in our generous pool for a cool dip… or an improvised water-polo match. Maybe skip the selfies during the game — not the most corporate look.

 

Conversation mode: remake the world together

For this very serious (and seriously enjoyable) activity, loungers and swings are all yours.
Working barefoot in the grass counts as productivity — we promise.

No timer, no pressure.
The only competition this afternoon? Spot who falls asleep first under a tree. Yes, that also builds team cohesion.

 

4:30 PM – One last sweet treat before heading home

The sun begins to dip; the smiles don’t. Before you leave, our team has prepared a little gourmet surprise : 

  • A few sweet treats to enjoy with loved ones… or secretly in the car. We won’t tell if they magically disappear before you’re back on the road.
  • A final look at the Seine as it slips into its evening colours. 

You head home with clear lungs, a brighter mood, and plenty of stories for your next coffee break. The natural environment of the Campus — and your authentic experience — has surely done its job.

 

A unique break for your team

Organising your seminar at Campus des Berges de Seine means offering your team a moment suspended in time — built around cohesion and a complete change of scenery.
No screensavers, no overwhelming schedules: here, we work, we breathe, we laugh.

Our Talents think of every detail to ensure the day stays unforgettable. The whole team works hand in hand so you leave with completed projects, recharged batteries, and maybe even sore muscles (thank you, pétanque!).

So, ready to try the experience? We’re waiting for you for your next nature seminar in the heart of Île-de-France.
