Company Gatherings
Moments that deserve more than a meeting
Bring leadership together around the conversations that rarely fit inside a working day. Take a board or founder gathering into residence for several days, giving strategy the time to develop beyond the agenda and decisions room to be made well. Mark an important year, welcome new leadership, bring partners together or simply give the people behind the company the rare pleasure of time shared away from the roles and routines that usually define how they meet.
Gathering
A company may gather around work, but the value of being together reaches far beyond it. A conversation continues beyond the meeting, an achievement is celebrated around the table, and time is given to recognising the people who made it possible.
Setting
Each gathering is held in a Casa Mente destination, with the place in its entirety for the group. Away from the structures of everyday working life, the house, grounds and landscape become part of the time shared.
Experience
Morning movement, a private vineyard visit or an afternoon on the water can form part of the stay, according to the destination and season. A private chef brings the region to the table, while a dedicated host team coordinates the programme and the arrangements around it.
A Château to Call Home
From May to October
In the Landes of South-West France, A Château to Call Home takes place at an eighteenth-century estate whose history reaches back almost a thousand years. Here, the distinction is not simply privacy, but the freedom to inhabit the château as a home: practice in one room, coffee on the steps, lunch in the garden, a swim between sessions, dinner in the rotunda.

PERSONALISED RETREAT
Pilates retreats, yoga immersions and teacher-led stays place a discipline at the centre of the estate. Sessions move between the dedicated practice space and the grounds when appropriate, with the hours between them left open.
For retreats centred on food and wine, the kitchen and cellar become the subject of the stay. Cooking and tasting draw on the produce and culinary traditions of South-West France, with each day moving between kitchen, cellar and table.
Meditation, breathwork and restorative stays give greater weight to quiet. Sessions deepen across the retreat, while the house and grounds allow stillness to continue beyond them.
