Gerard Senehi (Writing Retreat - Fall 2022) :
"Being in this village was like stepping back in time with the best of what that represents. La Maison de Beaumont is a beautifully renovated building situated at the very top of a charming village. It was an idyllic place for me to do a writing retreat. I went for walks around the town in and in nature and it was all so inspiring, and gave me a sense that I could completely step out of my ordinary life and leave my normal reference points behind and open myself to a whole new experience. The staff there reflects the best of what you would imagine in a small village, people who are there for you as a way of being and not for the transaction. La Maison de Beaumont is unusual that way because so much care has gone into making it so beautiful and for giving people a wonderful experience of being in a small village, it’s truly a place created out of inspiration. Thank you to everyone who contributed to my stay including some of the local people who were all incredibly kind."
Maggie Bosco (Painting Residency - Summer 2022):
“My stay at La Maison de Beaumont was an incredibly rewarding and memorable experience. I spent a month exploring, photographing and painting the local landscapes of Beaumont de Pertuis and neighboring towns. I had the time to study the light and atmosphere as well as the beautiful, quiet way of life. Beaumont de Pertuis is a very charming and quiet village where life slows down so you can truly unwind and reflect. Additionally, the amenities and living space that the property offers are incredible. This residency greatly impacted both my personal and artistic growth in more ways than I could have imagined. I am forever grateful for my time here and highly recommend staying at La Maison de Beaumont.”
Warner Meadows (Composer & Pianist - Spring 2023):
“It was a life-changing trip that allowed me to refresh and find new inspiration. Truly grateful for the fresh perspectives and growth this experience provided me. I also composed a ton of new music that you can listen to by clicking here. Out of all the lessons I learned, I think the most salient was that time moves really fast and it’s imperative to stop, listen, and be present as often as we can. There’s gratitude and inspiration to find in each passing moment if we can take the time to catch it.”
