Food, Nature & Wellbeing
5 day Food & Wellness Retreats • 8 people per week
Following the overwhelming success of our completely sold-out 2025 retreat season, we are delighted to announce the return of our exclusive wellness retreats in 2027.
Created for those seeking space to slow down, reconnect and restore, our retreats bring together intimate gatherings, exceptional cuisine, beautiful natural surroundings and thoughtful wellbeing experiences in one of the most captivating corners of Southwest France.
With only a small number of guests at each retreat, every stay is intentionally designed to feel personal, unhurried and deeply restorative.

Coming in 2027
A different
kind of retreat
This is not about rigid schedules or striving for self-improvement.
It is about waking with the rhythm of nature, moving your body with intention, sharing remarkable meals, embracing moments of stillness and leaving feeling lighter than when you arrived.
Days unfold gently through yoga and mindful movement, woodland walks, time to read beside the pool, nourishing conversations and long, leisurely lunches crafted from the finest seasonal ingredients.
As evening falls, guests gather around the table to enjoy beautifully prepared dinners inspired by the region’s celebrated culinary traditions, paired with exceptional local wines.
Every element has been carefully considered. Nothing feels hurried. Everything feels meaningful.
