Set in the countryside of Occitanie, within the historic Cathar landscape, Mongrenier offers more than a simple escape — it is a place to slow down, reconnect, and return to what truly matters.

[ ACCOMODATIONS ]Our Stays
■
Maison Chérie & La Forge
At Mongrenier, two distinctive guest houses offer a refined retreat shaped by nature and intention.
Maison Chérie welcomes up to 16 guests into a timeless countryside home, where vintage character and carefully curated details create a sense of understated elegance.
Nearby, La Forge, a refined wood and stone tiny house, offers a more intimate experience — a space immersed in the landscape, where expansive windows and a generous terrace open onto uninterrupted views of rolling hills.
Together, they embody a slower, more conscious way of inhabiting a place — rooted in beauty, simplicity, and connection to the land.
Surrounded by over 70 hectares of preserved fields and forest, the experience extends far beyond the houses themselves. Days unfold at a gentler rhythm, nourished by seasonal, organic food grown on the land and prepared with care. Here, luxury is found in space, silence, and the quiet richness of being fully present.

Yoga, Meditation & Authentic Practice
Well-being, Mindful Pauses and Inner Reconnection
Stéphanie Pageot - Yoga Guide
Through a range of deeply personal and immersive practices, Stéphanie invites guests into a space of reconnection and inner alignment. Placing the philosophy of yoga at the very heart of her practice, she ensures it goes far beyond the physical, blending pranayamas, asanas, and meditation into a gentle return to simplicity.
With 6 years of experience, her approach weaves in mantras and mudras to create a comprehensive experience where care, awareness, and presence become tools for transformation. Each experience is designed to reconnect with oneself and the living world, in a way that feels both grounding and expansive. Drawing from 550 hours of training across Vinyasa, Yin, and Hatha, she creates spaces that support emotional release, clarity, and renewed balance.
Her teaching is soft and unadorned — born from her own journey of learning to slow down and finding solace in the comforting cocoon of Yin. From moments of authentic stillness to restorative sessions, her presence brings a quiet depth to the experience at Mongrenier, where inner and outer landscapes begin to realign. It is an invitation to breathe, to slow down, to feel, and to return to what truly matters.
Energy Work & Holistic Guidance
Wellbeing and Self-care for Humans and Animals
Laure Pasquier - Coach

After several years working as a therapist in emotional healing and cellular reprogramming, her heartfelt mission is to allow everyone to experience a profound reconnection to themselves and to the essentials of life. Laure walks by your side to help you return to a gentle, comforting simplicity, linking you to the essence of your being and the magnificent nature that surrounds us.

Plantes, Sound Therapy & Reflexology
Natural Healing with Herbs and Sound
Joël Vidal - Therapist
Rooted in a sincere dedication to well-being, Joël offers treatments that guide the body into deep relaxation and energetic balance. Combining massage, sound therapy, and reflexology, his practice creates a space for release, realignment, and inner calm. These sessions invite guests to slow down, listen inward, and reconnect with a more peaceful and harmonious rhythm.
Beyond his hands-on therapies, Joël cultivates and cares for the organic gardens at Mongrenier, producing herbs and essential oils that he integrates into his sessions. The use of these locally grown, living plants enhances both physical and energetic rejuvenation, connecting guests directly to the rhythms of the land.
His approach blends bodywork, sound, and the natural properties of plants to create a holistic, immersive experience. Each session becomes a moment of alignment — with oneself, with nature, and with the nourishing vitality that surrounds Mongrenier.
Reflexology & Personalized Bodywork
Wuo Taï, Ayurvedic Massage, Personalized Massage, and Multireflexology
Céline Giroir – Massage Therapist
Having practiced massage for over 20 years, Céline chose to devote herself fully to it, driven by her deepest passion: bringing well-being and helping everyone reconnect with their body.
She discovered Wuo Taï in 2004 during a sporting event, and it was a true revelation. At that time, the practice was still in its infancy, and she had the privilege of evolving alongside it over the years. Today, Céline continues to practice it with just as much passion and also takes great pleasure in teaching it. This encounter marked the beginning of her fascination with gesture, movement, and touch.
She later trained in Ayurvedic massage, and more recently in multireflexology—focusing primarily on foot and facial reflexology (Dien Chan). Today, she offers personalized treatments, blending different techniques to best meet your needs and provide you with a deeply rejuvenating experience.
At Mongrenier days unfold gently, guided by the rhythms of nature, nourishing food grown on the land, and meaningful experiences. Surrounded by open fields and wide skies, this is an invitation to reconnect — with nature, with your body, and with a deeper sense of presence.
