France Edition

Five days in South-West France

Once a year, a small group arrives one by one at a private château for the Casa Mente France Edition.

Returning in 2027. Write us to register your interest, or to join the waitlist.

​Arrival
​

Guests arrive throughout the afternoon, with a personal welcome and time to settle into the château. Casa Mente rituals open the Edition before the first shared dinner at the long table.

Movement
​

Morning begins with Classical Pilates, shaped with individual attention, followed by breakfast at the House. The day opens onto the gardens, pool and tennis court, with the afternoon left for a signature treatment or time at leisure.

The Atlantic
​

Beyond the estate, the Basque coast becomes the day’s horizon. Lunch overlooking the Bay of Biscay and an unhurried afternoon in Biarritz before returning to the château for the evening.

The day unfolds through the living traditions of the region, where craftsmanship, gastronomy and generations of quiet dedication continue to shape life here today. A visit to Château de Bachen offers a glimpse into the Guérard family’s enduring legacy. The evening returns to the estate for the Gala.
