Small countryside seminar

A small countryside seminar for working differently

A small seminar does not need to be heavy to be useful. In a calm, natural and warm setting, a small team can take time to work, talk, share meals and leave with clearer decisions.

Work & breathing space

A place to move forward without shutting yourself in

The format suits small teams, independent professionals, associations or working groups who want to meet differently. You can alternate work time, meals, breaks, walking, pétanque, games room and quiet moments. The objective is to create real breathing space without losing the seriousness of the meeting.

  • Welcoming room for work time, discussions or workshops
  • On-site accommodation depending on the number of participants
  • Meals, breaks, coffee and breakfasts possible by reservation
  • Light activities to breathe: walk, pétanque, games room, vegetable garden

In practice

What we can organise for you

Each project is built around your group: duration, meals, level of comfort, sleeping needs, rhythm of the day, budget and desired atmosphere.

A setting that encourages discussion

The place is not a standard conference room. Wood, stone, the large table, outdoor spaces and calm create a more direct, simpler atmosphere, often more effective for small groups.

Flexible work sessions

Workshop, strategic meeting, review, season preparation, collective thinking or creative time: we adapt the layout and rhythm to the type of day.

Breaks that genuinely help

Going out for a walk, playing pétanque, drinking coffee outside, visiting the vegetable garden or breathing near the ponds helps restart discussions differently.

With overnight stays if needed

For a short residential seminar, the on-site accommodation makes it possible to continue exchanges around the evening meal and breakfast.

Meals & table

Meals adapted to the group, not a fixed formula

The meal can be very simple, family-style, more generous or more festive. The idea is not to impose a single menu, but to find a realistic, convivial formula adapted to your event. Depending on the season, the vegetable garden and local produce can also inspire part of the table.

We can work around a seated meal, a buffet, an aperitif dinner, sharing platters, a burger evening, a tacos or fajitas format, a more Périgord-inspired menu, or a more classic proposal based around meat, fish, poultry or a vegetarian dish.

Day with lunch

Coffee arrival, work session, meal, afternoon workshop and relaxing break: a simple and efficient format.

Residential seminar

Evening meal, overnight stays and breakfast for a small team that wants to take time to build something.

Convivial working meal

Seated menu, buffet, platters or a more participatory formula depending on the desired level of formality.

Sweet breaks

Coffee, snack, dessert, estate fruit depending on the season: simple but carefully prepared breaks.
