The best of the new joyful wellness retreats [The Standard]

Updated: Feb 1



Nourish summer retreat at Manoir Mouret France


Margaret was interviewed in January 2024 by award winning travel and wellness journalist Alicia Miller for an article on "Why joyful retreats are 2024's most needed travel trend". Margaret and Manoir Mouret were featured in The London Standard newspaper (in print & on-line) in Alicia's article. Read the full article here.



"Manoir Mouret Retreats, France Margaret Reckitt and her husband Jack run their regular “accessible wellness” retreats out of an idyllic stone-faced 1850s manoir in the southern French commune of Andillac — about an hour from Toulouse. From qigong to yoga, kimchi-making sessions to workshops in sleep management, the eclectic programming of each retreat is designed to give guests the space to mentally reset and feel inspired to think outside of the box. The romantic Gallic setting alone sparks joie de vivre: plentiful sunshine, a glittering pool and downtime socialising with other attendees in the elegant 12-bedroom house makes it feel like a proper holiday as much as a soul-searching exercise. This being France, the food is a highlight: five acres of on-site gardens produce 30 types of fruit and veg, the stars of your zingy vegetarian meals."
