A Stay That Feels Like a New Beginning

For 50+ female solo travelers seeking connection, calm, and a taste of life in the south of France. Come as you are and leave with something more.

OUR STORY

A house that welcomes you like a friend. A stay that softens time.

We didn’t plan for this to be a retreat for solo women over 50, but now we can’t imagine it any other way. Come discover the joy of slow living, shared stories, and soft landings in the heart of France…

THE CHÂTEAU

Your own quiet room in the French countryside — with the warmth of a shared home.

Four uniquely charming rooms. Lush garden mornings. A poolside sunset ritual. Everything here is designed to slow you down, gently.

THE EXPERIENCE

A backyard swimming pool with blue water, surrounded by beige tiles, and two blue lounge chairs with potted plants on a patio. There is a beige wall, trees, and sky in the background.

Live, rest, and rediscover yourself in the French countryside.

Choose a 28-day immersion or a 14-day curated stay.
Join painting circles, yoga by the pool, market strolls and wine tastings, all in the company of women like you.

Feedback from the ladies

“Had a lovely stay at Le Petit Château with a group of friends. Our stay was so relaxing in a beautiful Château and attention to detail. We will be returning again in September.”

Le Petit Château welcomes women 50+, solo travelers, storytellers, quiet rebels, and gentle dreamers. Come alone. Feel connected. Leave changed.
