Maison de Reve
Silk farm days, hills and stillness
An old silk farm makes an evocative base for a retreat in the Drôme Provençale: Maison de Reve occupies an 18th-century property restored as a nine-bedroom house for wellness stays. Its scale feels domestic rather than institutional, with en-suite and shared bathrooms across the rooms, while outdoor life is a major part of the appeal. A 40-foot pool, private terraces and gardens create room to pause between sessions, and hiking trails can be reached directly from the property. The surrounding green hills invite a slower pace, with the landscape close at hand rather than something reserved for a day trip. Retreats are hosted here, but the particular practice, schedule and inclusions depend on the dates you choose. Check the retreat page for current dates and ask the host about meals, instruction and room arrangements before booking.
