Artist and Soul Retreats
A sanctuary for artists, business owners, writers, photographers, filmmakers, soul-preneurs and creatives who need time to rest, breathe, create, and simply be.
"It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye." - Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Is This For You?
Maison des Étoiles is perfect if you:
Have a creative project you'd love to finish in a supportive environment
Yearn to be fully seen and expressed in your work
Need time away from everyday life to rest, connect, and find inspiration
Want to connect with like-minded creatives in an intimate setting
The Experience
During Your Days
I have created a gentle structure to hold the week. There is plenty of time to rest in your room, work on your creative projects and explore. Each evening we’ll take it in turns for my specially invented exercise The Precipice which will take you to the edge of your projections and lead you deep into the expression of your soul. There are five group structures, one each day. These are nurturing, nourishing and have the capacity to transform aspects of you. The rest of the time you are free to follow your natural rhythm and create beyond the everyday.
Evening Gatherings
Share dinner and connect heart-to-heart with fellow creatives. Test out new ideas, receive gentle feedback, and experience the magic of creative community.
Celebration
At the end of the week we create an immersive exhibition of everyone's work for the local community, plus a virtual sharing event for our wider networks.

A Space for Soul Revival
We know that creative expression is as essential as food, water, and love. If your soul feels tired or yearning to be expressed, Maison des Étoiles offers the perfect environment to reconnect with your creative essence.
Here, away from the everyday world, everything becomes possible again. Perhaps your deepest, most authentic work yet will be born in this liminal space where creativity and soul meet.
Come and let your soul sparkle under the light of Maison des Étoiles.
March 2027 South West France
The first Maison des Étoiles will be held 17th - 22nd March 2027 in the magical, medieval hilltop village of Puycelsi in the South West of France. Here, the mists of time feel suspended, where you can connect with your own sense of timeless possibility and literally watch the elements as they swirl through ancient castle ruins.
Here, there is a delightful hilltop restaurant with reviews arguing it is some of the best fusion food in France. I have been there. It is incredible. And you can choose to eat as gluten free, diary free or sugar free, as you like. Though because the wheat in France has not been contaminated it is easier to digest.
If you are a creative or yearn for time to reconnect with that part of yourself. If you are an artist or business owner or creative being then this is for you. Connect here and we can discuss whether this is the right place for you to be next Spring.
I have spent the past year writing a dissertation about how creative expression is as essential as food, water, and love. If your soul feels tired or yearning to be expressed, Maison des Étoiles will offer the perfect environment to reconnect with your creative essence.
Here, away from the everyday world, everything will become possible again. Perhaps your deepest, most authentic work yet will be born in this liminal space where creativity and soul meet.
