Chateau de Bardouly is a beautifully restored 17th century house which brims with the charm and nobility of its 400 years of existence. Each room is stylishly appointed with antiques and art, yet maintains the atmosphere of a comfortable family home. During your stay you will enjoy bio dynamic farm to table meals, a heated swimming pool, tennis court, the local markets and cafes, the poetic gardens, woods surrounding a private lake on the 100 acre estate. Enjoy hiking an cycling through the gently rolling hills. The area boasts over 1000 historic castles and gardens and the prehistoric caves of Lascaux. You will have the opportunity to canoe down the mighty Dordogne River and sample the treasured nectar produced at world-class wineries.
Bardouly is the ideal setting for yoga retreats and teacher trainings. The grounds are beautiful, tranquil and serene; the yoga studio and outdoor platform have been built to the highest professional standards. In 2015 we hosted our inaugural retreats and teacher trainings. The tremendously positive feedback was beyond anything we could have imagined. In 2016 we will run 9 retreats with teachers from well respected studios including TriYoga, the Life and ASHA Centres in the UK and Yoga Works in the US. Our local professional chef prepares fresh bio-dynamic farm to table food daily. In addition to the yoga practice take advantage of canoeing on the Dordogne River, visits to local markets, and rambles through the exquisite countryside.
