rewild yourself
Nestled amongst the meandering vineyards of the Charente countryside in South West France sits Les Ombrieres. A private 25 acre luxurious retreat that sways in rhythm with the seasons - connecting you with nature to rejuvenate your health & wellbeing and rewild your spirit.
A wild retreat for the curious
Les Ombrieres, a traditional Charentais Maison de Maitre exudes French charm. Once a working vineyard in the 1800’s, crafting the regional speciality ‘Pineau de Charente”, reminders of an bygone era can be found in the surrounding barns and the vines are now home to a herd of beautiful regional Limousin cattle and our resident donkeys Dudley and Dougal.
