INTRODUCTION

Step into the sunlit hills of South-West France; near to the picturesque medieval town of Castelnau-Montratier. A 19th-century château, surrounded by 75 acres of private landscaped grounds - secluded, refined, and quietly luxurious.

Here, every detail has been considered: movement in the open air, exquisite seasonal dining, spacious en-suite rooms, and long, unhurried afternoons beside the heated pool.

Amidst rolling vineyards, ancient trees and the soft hum of rural life, our Barre Retreat invites you to experience deep restoration in surroundings designed for total ease — where wellness meets the art of French living.

A large country house with a red tiled roof, blue shutters, and a white stone exterior, surrounded by green trees, a manicured lawn, and a driveway leading to the property. The background shows rolling hills and a partly cloudy sky.
A backyard with a rectangular swimming pool, surrounded by lounge chairs with white towels, umbrellas, and lush green trees and plants.
Empty room with wooden floor, exposed brick and dark wall with large arched glass doors revealing a scenic outdoor view, ceiling with wooden beams, large woven hanging light fixtures, and small wall-mounted lights.
Interior of a bright dining room with large windows, a wooden table with a potted orchid, and open door leading to a garden with trees and a stone sculpture.

YOUR BARRE RETREAT

The perfect backdrop for a powerful physical reset, your five-day Barre Retreat in France blends luxurious surroundings with an uplifting programme designed to build strength, improve posture, increase flexibility and leave you feeling energised – all while enjoying the kind of slow, spacious living that France does best.

  • You’ll begin each day with an invigorating Barre class surrounded by open countryside, and close it with a focused Pilates & Barre Fusion session designed to deepen core strength, improve control and build muscular endurance. In between, indulge in chef-prepared seasonal cuisine, dip into the heated pool, enjoy the property’s outstanding facilities and magnificent living areas, or simply unwind with a book on the terrace – all within a setting that feels truly a world away.

    Our Barre Retreat blends movement, exceptional hospitality and the understated luxury of rural France; an opportunity to rest, reconnect and return home with a lasting sense of physical and mental renewal.

YOUR BARRE CLASSES

Your Barre Retreat will be led by Stacey Beattie, our most experienced Pilates and Barre instructor, who has been teaching Barre for over seven years.

A STOTT-accredited Pilates teacher trainer, Stacey educates and mentors future instructors and is also one of the UK’s most in-demand sports and holistic therapists. Her extensive understanding of movement, anatomy and technique allows her to create Barre classes that are challenging, effective and accessible to every level.

Barre is a low-impact, full-body workout combining the precision and core strength of Pilates with elements of ballet and strength training. Using the barre for balance and support, classes incorporate small, controlled movements, repeated pulses and isometric holds to work the core, legs, glutes and upper body, building muscular strength and endurance while improving posture, flexibility, balance and body awareness.

Despite its ballet influences, no dance experience or ballet background is required. Every exercise can be adapted to suit your ability.

Morning Barre classes are dynamic and energising, while Stacey’s evening Pilates & Barre Fusion sessions place particular emphasis on deep core strength, muscular control, posture and endurance.

Known for her warm and encouraging teaching style, Stacey will help you challenge yourself safely and develop greater confidence in your body. Whether you are completely new to Barre or already attend classes regularly, you will feel supported, motivated and part of a welcoming community throughout your retreat.
