At Plates Farm, days unfold with the rhythm of the seasons. Mornings begin with gentle movement, afternoons drift between vineyards, markets and long lunches, and evenings gather around remarkable food designed by our Michelin-recognised team.

Nothing is rushed. Nothing is expected.

Simply arrive, slow down and leave feeling lighter than when you came.

Food, Nature & Wellbeing

Stay alongside our Resident Chefs & Wellness team.

Plant, harvest and forage as the season dictates.

Try dishes fresh from the development kitchen.

Wander local markets, vineyards and villages.

Breathe, move and rest with our wellness team.

Unwind by the pool, in the sauna, or simply do nothing at all.

"A masterclass in undone luxury."

Every retreat follows a gentle rhythm rather than a strict schedule.

All meals, wellness sessions, local transport and curated experiences are included, but how you spend each day is entirely up to you.

Five days that unfold at their own pace

The Experience

Gathering in south-west France, where life moves a little slower

The Location

Surrounded by rolling fields and vineyards, Plates Farm sits in the heart of Gascony – a region known for its rich history, quiet charm and celebrated cuisine. Here, every journey is scenic, every meal a pleasure, and every moment feels a little longer.

Bordeaux Airport: 90 minutes
Toulouse Airport: 90 minutes
Agen railway station: 90 minutes
Bergerac Airport: 120 minutes

The Food

Where every meal begins long before the kitchen

Throughout the week you'll share generous breakfasts, relaxed lunches, unforgettable dinners and moments in the kitchen itself, learning alongside the team, tasting new ideas and experiencing food at its source.

Food is at the heart of everything we do.

Guided by the seasons, our chefs harvest from the farm, source from trusted local producers and continue developing the dishes that shape Plates London.

The Place

A modern retreat rooted in the French countryside

Hidden among rolling fields in Le Gers, Plates Farm is a restored collection of farm buildings, gardens and orchards designed for both rest and creativity.

Luxury bedrooms, shared dining spaces, a heated saltwater pool, sauna, gym and peaceful corners to pause all sit naturally within the landscape. Every space has been carefully considered, balancing quiet luxury with the simplicity of rural life.

Whether you're seeking renewal, reflection or a moment of stillness, the experience is designed to leave you feeling refreshed and restored

Wellness

A programme of yoga, mindfulness and breathwork (all included), with ample time to rest and recharge at your own pace. Enjoy our heated saltwater pool, sauna and gym, or simply find a quiet corner of the farm to slow down.

Gentle yoga, breathwork and mindful movement balanced with afternoons beside the pool, quiet walks and time that's entirely your own.

A taste of Gascony

Private château visits, vineyard tastings, local markets and unforgettable lunches celebrating the very best of southwest France.

The Farm Kitchen

Cook alongside our chefs, discover new techniques and taste dishes in development before they ever appear on the menu.

Who It's For

Designed for those seeking more than a holiday

You appreciate exceptional food, but equally value long conversations, fresh air and time without distraction.

You enjoy structure, but not schedules. Shared experiences, without sacrificing personal space.

Whether you're travelling solo, as a couple or with a friend, you'll find a warm, intimate atmosphere shaped by curiosity, generosity and a shared appreciation for thoughtful living.

If you're looking for something more meaningful than a resort, you've found it.

A cozy bedroom with a bed decorated with plush pillows and folded towels, a white dresser with a vase of dried flowers, a yellow-lit table lamp, and a large window with curtains overlooking a balcony.

Thoughtfully designed spaces to rest, recharge and wake slowly

The Rooms

Each retreat is limited to just eight to ten guests, with five individually designed bedrooms spread across the farmhouse.

Natural materials, calming interiors and carefully considered details create spaces that feel warm, quiet and deeply comfortable. Every room includes air conditioning, an en suite bathroom, luxury bedding and views across the surrounding countryside.

Whether you're travelling alone, as a couple or with a friend, each room offers the privacy and comfort to properly unwind before another day at the farm.

There are few opportunities each year to experience Plates Farm in this way.

With just eight guests on each retreat, places are intentionally limited, allowing every stay to remain personal, unhurried and deeply connected to the people and place around it.
