Even though this question is quite old already, here's a thought for future reference:

Make sure you referenced your custom repository class in your "Geographicalarea" entity's annotations. If you don't, Doctrine will not load your custom repository class, but use the default repository, which does not know about your custom method.

So instead of just having @ORM\Entity in your entity class' annotations write: @ORM\Entity(repositoryClass="Namespaced\Path\To\Custom\Repository").
