Escape. Unwind.

Just be

Relax in the beautiful, French countryside with

good food, gentle company and no schedules.

A Sanctuary for Women who want to Just Be

Natural Comfort, Gentle Company and Quiet Beauty.

A week in small luxury retreat in France for women 40+ who crave rest, ease and company without pressure.

Three guests only 

Everything cared for 

Nothing to prove

Slow Days. Honest Connection. The Freedom to Do Nothing.

Here, time stretches and life slows to a gentler rhythm. Mornings begin with coffee in the garden, afternoons drift by the stream, and evenings unfold around the table with good food and easy laughter.

Enjoy your own quiet space and privacy, with the warmth of connection never far away

A Women’s Retreat set in the Quiet Beauty of Rural France

Where Simplicity Feels Like Luxury.

Tucked away in a peaceful Breton valley, Just Be is a countryside retreat in France that rests within two acres of trees and meadow, alive with birdsong and soft light. The house blends rustic warmth with modern comfort — oak beams, stone walls, and generous showers — creating a calm, authentic haven.

Food with Heart

Shared Meals, Simple Pleasures.

Meals are freshly prepared each day from seasonal Breton produce — generous, nutritious and full of flavour.
Breakfast is slow and easy, lunch is light and relaxed and dinner brings us together around one table with wine, laughter, and the comfort of being among women who understand the need to pause.

Hospitality with Heart

After decades in the creative world and years spent exploring Asia, I came to understand that real peace lives in simplicity — in being well-fed, well-rested and at ease.

I restored this old farmhouse with that idea in mind: a place where women can stop striving, breathe deeply and feel held by both nature and kindness.
Each week I welcome just three international guests, and together we share what’s rare — time, stillness and genuine connection.

It Was Everything I Could Ask For.

Wonderful companionship and self-discovery.

It was an excellent balance of privacy and being served with warm hospitality.”

Barbara, USA

“My stay was free from structured schedules.

I loved the freedom to meander the countryside alone to sketch and paint.

I had the time to focus on my artistic skills without interruption.

It was a week of building lasting self-esteem and self-confidence.”
