Returning in June 2027. Write us to register your interest, or to join the waitlist.
Arrival
A personal welcome and time to settle into the château open the five-day stay. Casa Mente rituals introduce the details that accompany the experience, before guests gather at the long table for their first dinner. Seasonal cooking, regional wines and carefully selected non-alcoholic pairings introduce the chef’s approach to the days ahead.
Movement
Morning hydration rituals lead into classical Pilates, with individual guidance and thoughtful progression throughout the stay. A nourishing breakfast follows, prepared by the chef using seasonal ingredients and tailored to each guest’s dietary needs. Between lunch in the gardens and a sommelier-led tasting in the château cellar, there is time for the pool, tennis or a signature treatment.
The Atlantic
After morning practice, the day leads to Biarritz for lunch at Hôtel du Palais overlooking the Bay of Biscay. The afternoon is open for coastal walks, cafés and galleries, with time to explore before returning to the château. Dinner takes inspiration from the Atlantic coast, bringing its produce and culinary traditions to the table.
Heritage
By the fourth morning, the practice has begun to feel familiar. A visit to Château de Bachen introduces the Guérard family’s culinary legacy and its place in the region’s gastronomic traditions. Back at the estate, a gala dinner brings everyone together for the final evening.
