Alet Retreat Center

Two sister houses - Les Marguerites sitting on the Magdalene Lay Line and Villa du Parc nestled on the bank of the river Aude. Together we create Alet Retreat Center and can accommodate groups of up to 22 people.

The Union of House 57 & House 22

Together, Les Marguerites 57 and Villa du Parc 22 create a rare balance of inspiration and grounding for your retreats. Les Marguerites 57 uplifts with joy, creativity, and connection, a space where hearts open and transformation begins. Villa du Parc 22 provides the anchor, offering stability, wisdom, and the power to turn vision into reality. When combined, these two retreat spaces invite you on a journey that is both expansive and deeply rooted, where insights are discovered, embodied and carried forward into life.

Alet Retreat Center welcomes groups of all kinds. We specialise in working with soulful retreat leaders hosting Mary Magdalene Retreats as well as groups following the footsteps and teachings or the Cathars and living The Way of Love. We understand group dynamics and the magic that happens when people come together and connect. We enjoy assisting facilitators/leaders in creating a supportive and nourishing environment for their groups to relax into a unique experience. 

We can host a variety of retreats in our space

Olen vienyt ryhmiä ja vieraillut itsekseni hyvin monia kertoja Les Marqueritesissa Languedocin alueella viimeisen neljän vuoden aikana. Paikka ja talo ovat aivan uniikkeja ja erityisiä, aivan kuten sen omistajat Antoinette ja Keith. Heillä on sydän kohdallaan ja he tekevät työtään intohimoisesti ja ammattitaitoisesti. He yksinkertaisesti tekevät vierailustasi Languedocin alueella erityisen, ja myös kaikkensa, jotta nautit siitä kaikin tavoin. Lisäksi, Antoinette on erinomainen kokki ja voit nauttia terveellisestä ja maukkaasta ruoasta vierailusi aikana. Voin suositella sydämestäni Les Marqueritesia jokaiselle.

I've had the blessing and pleasure of bringing groups for weeklong retreats at Les Marguerites more than a 1/2 dozen times and there isn't anywhere else in the area I'd recommend more. The level of attention, care and nourishment is exquisite. Antoinette holds the energy of the group and the work we are doing at a mastery level. I always feel deeply supported to lead at my highest level, knowing that I can rest assured that not only the logistical details of rooms, meals and a beautiful environment are handled yet also the loving embrace of Les Marguerites and family are buoying all that we are up to.

It’s difficult to think of enough superlatives for Les Marguerites!  Entering the house for the first time with my group, we were so lovingly welcomed by Antoinette and Keith that it felt more like a joyful homecoming than just walking into a pretty chambre d'hote.  A mouth-watering aroma floated in from the kitchen and soon we were happily treated to Antoinette’s considerable cooking abilities.  Every room was beautifully appointed and all my travelers couldn’t have been more delighted with the house, gardens and food.  Beyond the above-standard accommodations, however, was the incredible care, attention, flexibility and good humor of Antoinette and Keith, who guided and assisted us in multiple ways with their willingness to support our experience of the area.  At the end of our time there, none of us wanted to leave!  I take people all over the world and nothing compares to the petite Shangri-La that Les Marguerites is!
