Frequently Asked Questions
Practical details to help you plan with confidence.
​I’m traveling solo — is that okay?
​
Absolutely. Many participants attend solo. The retreat is designed to be welcoming, inclusive, and community-oriented, with a balance of personal space and shared experiences.
​
What level of fitness is required?
The retreat is designed for active adults who value strength, vitality, and well-being. Sessions are scalable and accessible, with an emphasis on participation, recovery, and enjoyment rather than performance or intensity. Participants are encouraged to engage at their own pace.
​
What airport or train station should I fly into?
​
Participants typically arrive via Paris and continue by train to the designated arrival station near the château. Exact travel instructions, recommended routes, and timing guidance are provided to all participants ahead of the retreat.
​
Is transportation included?
Yes. Group transportation between the designated train station and the château is included on arrival and departure days. Full details are shared with participants closer to the retreat date.
​
Do you recommend travel insurance or flexible flights?
​
Yes — we strongly encourage participants to purchase travel insurance for greater peace of mind when planning international travel. Travel insurance can help protect against unexpected changes, delays, or personal circumstances that may arise.
In addition, some participants choose flights that are refundable or easily changeable, depending on their personal preferences and comfort level. While the retreat itself is confirmed and will run as planned, these options can offer an added layer of flexibility and reassurance when booking travel.
Ultimately, travel arrangements are a personal decision, and we encourage participants to choose what best supports their sense of ease and confidence.
​
What is your cancellation or refund policy?
Because the retreat involves securing a private château, staff, and vendors well in advance, all deposits are non-refundable. Deposits may be transferred to another guest, subject to approval and timing.

The remaining balance is due by April 15, 2026. Full details are clearly outline at the time of booking.

​
Is the retreat alcohol-free?
Wine is thoughtfully included with select meals, reflecting the regional culture and culinary experience. Consumption is entirely optional, and the retreat environment supports moderation, well-being, and personal choice.
