JOIN OUR EXCLUSIVE Retreats
Feeding your mind, body and soul
We offer extraordinary and unforgettable four to seven-day retreats in a 15,000 square feet Château in the beautiful Loire Valley, France.
A symbol of transformation for over eight centuries, the Château and its grounds have been fully renovated to their original grandeur. The Château provides a stunning countryside environment to disconnect, reconnect with yourself, your life force and nature. Its Japanese garden and Buddha circle provide a space for peaceful, serene and meditative moments. Peacocks, ducks, swans and hens parade on the grounds for your delight and you can pick fresh eggs daily.
Enjoy the heated pool, jacuzzi, sauna, gym, yoga studio or chill in one of the 5 lounges, play a game of pool or wonder around 4 hectares of private gardens.
Enjoy delicious and nutritious French food, lovingly made on site every day.

We have a range of unique and exciting retreats for you in 2025…
…which one will take your fancy?

Do you want to experience French castle life? Surround yourself with inspiring & ambitious women?
Start the new year on a high? Unleash your full potential? Then this retreat is for you. Designed by women for women.

The Goddess Academy is about finding your why, crushing your fears, planning your life in order to reach your full potential, allowing yourself to dream big, and crafting a path to make it happen.
It’s about understanding the real power of being a woman, unleashing your feminine energy and becoming a hotter version of yourself to run your world with sass!
It’s also finding a new tribe with a hunger to succeed, a real sense of resilience and hard work.
It’s being surrounded by inspiring and supportive women with different cultures, backgrounds, traditions, lifestyles, ages, social status, professions and aspirations. Meeting women who have your back, lift you up, celebrate your small wins and help you reach your goals.
The Goddess Academy is not a conventional retreat but an intensive one where we shake up our ideas and beliefs, dig deep, plant seeds, laugh, cry, awaken our inner voice, rekindle our flame, and craft our future.
If this resonates with you, Jenny and I will be honoured to hear your story and help you write the sequel.
Thank you 2023 and 2024 Goddesses for your trust, your kindness and for inspiring us!
