A Bijoux Retreat weekend is a calm creative escape designed to help you slow down, reconnect, and immerse yourself in beautiful experiences. Every moment is curated with intention — from candlelit dinners to hands‑on couture‑inspired workshops.
Guests arrive in the mid to late afternoon and settle into the warm, characterful surroundings of the house. We welcome everyone with a drink and delicate canapés before easing into a gentle introductory crafting session around the dining table. As the creative energy begins to flow, our executive chef prepares a delicious evening buffet, served in the kitchen so the crafting space can stay beautifully set. The whole evening is relaxed, cosy, and designed to help you unwind into retreat mode.
After a slow breakfast, the day unfolds with relaxed, beginner‑friendly crafting sessions led by our designer, who brings years of experience from working with couture houses but teaches in a gentle, accessible way. You’ll work with beautiful materials, enjoy a chef‑prepared lunch, and spend the afternoon creating, exploring, and connecting. The evening ends with a candlelit dinner and time to unwind.
A peaceful morning, a final creative session, and a farewell brunch bring the weekend to a gentle close. Guests leave restored, inspired, and carrying a beautiful piece they crafted themselves. Occasionally, we’re able to offer something a little extra — an extended Sunday stay with an additional overnight and a fine‑dining evening experience like no other. This optional upgrade is available at an additional cost and provides the perfect way to end your retreat in true Bijoux style.
Every retreat is fully curated — all you need to do is arrive and enjoy.
