The Not-So Gentle Life Business Retreat

Join Emily and Francesca for a gently transformational business wellness retreat.

They won’t show you how to scale-up. They're not going to help you reach for some arbitrary revenue goal (like that magical six-figure income). They're here to support you to set the goals YOU love and want, plan the way YOU want to work to meet them and to design the life that best suits YOU. In this unique retreat, your hosts Emily and Francesca bring you their combined 30 years of experience in supporting people’s minds, bodies, work, and businesses.

I have a memory of one of my first holidays in France. It was a cold Autumn evening and there was not a cloud in the sky. It was dark, pitch black, no light for miles. We were outside, our breath was frosty and our backs were cold as we lay on the floor, in the middle of the empty road and took in the myriad stars in the night sky. I have never seen a sky like it since. Occasionally I will get a glimpse of a single star, or sometimes the moon will catch my eye on a late commute home, but nothing will compare to that cold evening. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It may have been the mulled wine, the loving company or a simple sense of adventure but ever since we have tried to capture that feeling of awe and belonging in our holiday homes. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Everything is personal, from the individual requests we try to cater for to the little touches that we hope make your stay a memorable one. The best things though are the ones you discover yourself, venture out, look up at the sky and breathe in. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Click on link in bio to visit our website and book a French Loaf winter getaway.
It’s beginning to look a little autumnal. The days are shortening and there is definitely a chill in the air after supper. It’s this time of year that I love to walk and explore beyond the fields immediately behind us and see what’s going on. You can walk to our closest village by turning left at the end of our drive, heading through the rambling farmhouse with its beautiful flowers and pumpkin patch (owned by a gentleman called Alain and his wife, whose name I’ve never got) and to the end of the road, before left again up the hill. At the top you’ll find the village cemetery. It always gets me thinking about the history of the villagers. Down the hill and past the vines (worked on tirelessly) and you’re into the village. No shops, no amenities, but it’s a lovely little hub all the same. The church, the Maurice and the winery (where we get our champagne) are all worth a look. #walk #villagelife #ruralfrance #autumn #fall #simplepleasures #explore #frenchloafadventures #thehappynow
