THE EXPERIENCE

More Than a Stay. A Month to Remember.

What if your next trip wasn’t just a break… but a quiet beginning?

Le Petit Château offers something beautifully rare: a place to experience life in France the way locals do — slow mornings, honest food, gentle movement, shared stories, and the chance to explore at your own pace.

Whether you stay for 28 days or 14, this isn’t a holiday. It’s a soft reset — in a home that welcomes your rhythm, your curiosity, and your silence.

Stay Options

🌙 28-Day Immersion Stay

Perfect for women seeking reconnection, rest, and a taste of what living in France could feel like. Includes access to all experiences and community features.

🌙 14-Day Curated Escape

A gentle, shorter stay with the same soul — ideal for a wellness break, sabbatical, or gifted retreat.

All stays are solo-room only. Maximum 5 guests per month.

Imagine Your Days

Mornings in the sunroom. A painting class after breakfast. Quiet afternoons by the pool. A shared laugh over market figs and wine.
A nap. A new idea. A new chapter.

This isn’t a retreat you attend.
It’s a stay you step into and it stays with you long after you leave.
