Exceptional retreat · Périgord Noir · Strictly private estate
Deep in the preserved Périgord Noir, the Château de l'Étang Estate welcomes you for a confidential pause across 40 hectares. A unique approach blending applied neuroscience, movement, living gastronomy and meditation — orchestrated for profound, lasting transformation.
Wellness Wave is built on a deep conviction: lasting well-being is born at the meeting point of scientific rigour, intentional physical effort, living nutrition and full presence. Four pillars, one intention — to bring you back to what truly matters. Our method is orchestrated by Adrien Amasse, certified neuroscience coach ICF PCC, and grounded in a decade of work with executives and elite athletes.
Understand your brain to rewrite your patterns. Our protocols draw on recent advances in neuroplasticity, nervous-system regulation and stress physiology — for changes that take root and endure.
From restorative yoga to HYROX intensity, boxing and forest escapes: a palette of practices selected for their proven neurobiological effects — calibrated to your condition.
A chef's table designed as a protocol. Exceptional produce from Périgord growers, anti-inflammatory cooking by our chef, and simple practices you can take home with you.
The silence of Périgord as the raw material for inner work. Guided meditations, breathwork, forest bathing at dawn — nature itself becomes therapeutic protocol.
« Nature is not a backdrop — it is a protocol. Twenty minutes in contact with a natural environment is enough to significantly lower salivary cortisol. »— Hunter, Gillespie & Chen, Frontiers in Psychology, 2019
Tucked into preserved Périgord Noir, the Château de l'Étang in Limeyrat becomes your territory for the duration of your stay. No other group, no intrusion — forty hectares of nature, a historic château and an entire estate that belong to you alone.
Centenarian oak forests, a private lake, secret gardens, a meditation dome and sports areas woven into the landscape: every corner has been designed to alternate effort, rest and contemplation in a natural flow. The ideal setting for transformation retreats, executive coaching and stays of regained intimacy.
Two approaches to an exceptional retreat, one same inner destination: a deep, grounded, lasting return to yourself. One cultivated in a small circle, the other tailored to your inner circle.
Join a group of like-minded enthusiasts gathered around a shared discipline. Each retreat is built around a central practice, enriched by our full holistic protocol.
The entire estate for you, your partner, your family or your inner circle. A 100 % bespoke programme co-designed with our coaches to meet your specific goals.
A week that changed how I approach stress. The neuroscience protocols combined with sport in nature had an effect I would never have thought possible. I came back transformed.
The setting of the château is breathtaking. But it's the approach — the real science behind every activity — that convinced me. This is not surface-level wellness. It's deep and lasting.
My team and I spent 3 days outside of time. The bespoke programme, local gastronomy, forest at dawn… We came back with an energy and a cohesion nothing else could have created.
No prior fitness level is required. Each programme is adapted to your physical condition on arrival. Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned athlete, activities are tuned to challenge you without exhausting you.
Themed retreats welcome up to 12 participants, to ensure personalised guidance and genuine group cohesion. The Private Experience is reserved for your exclusive group (2 to 20 people), with the entire estate for you.
Yes, entirely. Whether you choose a themed retreat or a private experience, no other group is present on the estate during your stay. The château, the gardens, the lake and the sports areas belong to you completely.
