Pilates retreats in France

A private château for your Pilates retreat.

Château de Tournou welcomes Pilates retreat proposals on an exclusive-use basis, with 7 bedrooms for up to 15 overnight guests, including your teacher. Located in Castelreng in the Aude, the estate brings accommodation, meals and relaxation together in one place. Session layouts and equipment are agreed with the organiser before the booking is confirmed.

Are you a Pilates teacher or studio owner looking to take your community away for a few days? The stay is built around your teaching. This offer covers the venue and hosting your group; classes and studio equipment are not automatically included.

The Tournou experience

Movement. Stillness. Your own group.

01

Find the right space to practise

A mat Pilates retreat needs suitable clear floor space, room around each mat and a layout that works for your exercises. Tell us how many students are coming, how much circulation space you need and which props you use. Indoor and outdoor options are reviewed according to the season and your programme.

02

Set a comfortable pace

A residential retreat gives the programme room to breathe: a class, breakfast, a technique workshop, time to rest and dinner together. Bedrooms and shared living spaces are all on site. Room-sharing arrangements are planned around your group’s preferences.

03

Shape the stay around your sessions

Use the equipped kitchens to prepare your own meals or enquire about catering. A massage, a local outing or a private-chef dinner can complement the stay, subject to availability and a separate quotation.

Your group at the château

Plan it together

A well-planned stay starts with the right details.

These details help us assess whether the venue is right for your group and prepare a clear proposal.

  • Number of students and teachers, and preferences for individual or shared rooms.
  • Usable floor area, flooring, layout and an indoor alternative to confirm.
  • Mats, balls, rings and other props you will bring or need to source.
  • Mat-based or machine-based programme: reformers are not advertised as available.
Practical questions

Before you book.

Does the château have a fully equipped Pilates studio?

We offer a private retreat venue, rather than an equipped Pilates studio. The practice space, usable floor area and layout must be confirmed for your group.

Are reformers available?

Reformers are not advertised as provided. If your programme requires machines, their availability, transport and installation must be confirmed before booking.

Can our usual studio organise a retreat here?

Yes. A teacher or studio can bring its own group and programme, once the practice layout and terms of the stay have been agreed.

How does this differ from the yoga retreat offer?

This page addresses the specific requirements of a Pilates stay: space around the mats, props, any equipment and workshop arrangements. Your teacher designs the programme for their discipline.

Are classes included in the price?

Teaching is not included as standard. Your proposal sets out the venue hire, selected services and anything arranged directly by your teacher.

What budget should we allow for the stay?

Pricing depends on the dates, length of stay, group and selected services. Ask for a proposal that separates exclusive venue hire from optional services. No fixed per-person package price is advertised here.
