Nestled in the peaceful rolling countryside of south-west France, this exceptional property offers a rare opportunity to acquire not only a beautiful and substantial home, but also an established lifestyle business with significant future potential. Combining rustic French charm, flexible accommodation and purpose-built retreat facilities, the property is ideally suited as a yoga and wellness retreat centre, group holiday venue, boutique hospitality business or spacious private residence with income potential.

Formerly operated as a successful yoga and wellness retreat, the property later transitioned into a holiday rental business, welcoming guests seeking tranquillity, space and authentic rural French living. It's established reputation and adaptable layout make it equally attractive for buyers looking to continue a commercial venture or simply enjoy an extraordinary home in an idyllic setting.

The property offers 9 bedrooms (mix of doubles/twins, triple and single rooms) and 8 bathrooms across a series of welcoming and characterful living spaces. Original features, including exposed beams, stone walls, terracotta floors and timber details create warmth and authenticity, while generous communal areas provide ample room for entertaining, dining and relaxing with family, friends or guests. With a large, recently reroofed barn in the grounds there is also potential for additional accommodation or a separate annexe (subject to planning permission).

Major improvement works have been completed over the past four years. The entire property was reroofed in 2024, representing a major investment and providing reassurance for future owners. Combined with ongoing enhancements to the pool (new pool liner in 2026) and outdoor areas, the property is well-positioned for immediate enjoyment and operation. However, further works are needed to improve the energy rating (roof insulation and a VMC Mechanical Ventilation System are recommended)

One of the standout features is the dedicated yoga studio, created from a beautifully converted barn. Designed specifically for retreats and wellness activities, the studio features a wooden floor, high-tented ceiling and large opening doors with views across the gardens, pool and surrounding countryside. The studio is fully equipped with professional yoga equipment including mats, bolsters, blocks, straps, blankets and Iyengar style ropes, allowing new owners to operate retreats immediately without additional investment.

Outside, the atmosphere is one of peace and privacy. Mature gardens, fruit trees, bamboo groves and shaded terraces create a secluded environment perfect for relaxation and outdoor living. The large 10m x 5m swimming pool forms the centrepiece of the outdoor space and benefits from a new liner fitted in 2026. Expansive terraces provide ideal spaces for al fresco dining, group gatherings or simply enjoying the spectacular sunsets for which the area is known.

The surrounding countryside offers the charm and simplicity of rural France while remaining accessible. The property is located just over an hour north of Bordeaux and within easy reach of Angoulême, making it convenient for international guests travelling by air or TGV while still offering the feeling of a true escape.

The versatility of the estate is one of its greatest strengths. It could continue as a yoga and wellness retreat centre, host creative workshops or corporate retreats, operate as a luxury gîte or holiday rental business, or simply serve as a stunning private residence capable of accommodating extended family and guests. The existing infrastructure, accommodation capacity and proven rental history provide a strong foundation for a variety of business models.

Properties offering this combination of lifestyle, character and commercial opportunity are increasingly difficult to find. Whether your vision is to create a thriving retreat business, develop a hospitality venture or simply enjoy an exceptional home in the French countryside.
