YOGA retreat PROVENCE, SOUTH OF france

1st July - 5th July (5 nights)

HOUSE & LOCATION

A renovated farmhouse created into a boutique retreat venue, nestling in the wild, mountainous landscape of La Drôme Provençale on the Rhônes-Alpes/Provence borders. 

Set in a rich landscape of olive groves, vineyards, forests and orchards, the privately owned retreat house sits on a hill overlooking the ancient market town of Nyons – world famous for its olive oil. With its microclimate and exceptional air quality.

The largely undiscovered area offers dramatic and spectacular mountainous landscapes, and is very popular with yogis, cyclists, walkers and artists.

A yoga holiday & cultural immersion

New location in the breathtaking hills in Provence in the stunning South of France

I’m so excited to share something new and special with you —

Yoga retreat in Provence, France, taking place July 1–6, 2026 (5 nights).

We’ll be staying in a beautiful countryside house just outside Marseille, complete with a pool, private yoga room, and a wonderful chef who will be preparing fresh, seasonal meals for us each day.

Think lavender fields, local markets, and scenic bike rides and walks through vineyards and sun-soaked villages.

Each morning will begin with fun dynamic yoga to open the body and mind, followed by adventures on two wheels, or walking in the hills and plenty of time to rest, read, swim Cultural dips into the village, which is a short walk to cafes, restaurants. Visit the twice weekly markets. Enjoy simply restorative evening practices to compliment the day, and beautiful alfresco dining with stunning two course meal by private chef ever evening
