Château de Borie · 2027
Four retreats. One château. A year of reasons to come back.
A season timeline for the 2027 program — painting in spring, memoir in May, painting again in summer, and French immersion in September. A fifth retreat joins the lineup in a few weeks. Stay tuned!
22–25 Apr 2027
The Spring Atelier
Come make art with me.
Three days in the cottage studio — six artists working side by side, no experience required. Paint, eat very well, and spend an afternoon wandering Penne-d'Agenais.

Writing Your Unexpected Life
For women who have lived something worth telling.
A five-day memoir retreat built around one discovery: the real story underneath the one you thought you were telling. No preparation needed — we find it together, starting the first morning.

The Summer Atelier
Come make art with me.
The Spring Atelier's summer sibling — same cottage studio, same small table of six, longer light and warmer evenings in the Gascon countryside.

Living in French
A Language & Lifestyle Immersion at Château de Borie
Spend a week experiencing France from the inside while building the confidence to actually use your French. Learn through markets, meals, village life and everyday encounters — with plenty of encouragement to speak, make mistakes and enjoy the language along the way.
