Domaine de Ronchinne sits in the Walloon countryside, away from the towns. It is green, wooded and quiet, and in autumn the trees around the estate change colour. Most of what happens here takes place either outdoors or in rooms that look out onto the grounds.

The programme is based on mindfulness practice. There are outdoor meditation sessions, including at sunrise for those who want it, and yoga classes held in calm, natural surroundings. Sessions are gentle and aimed at slowing down rather than pushing hard physically. Between classes you are free to walk the estate's nature trails.

What sets this apart from a city studio retreat is the estate itself. You are on a rural property with woodland on your doorstep, so a walk in the woods is a short stroll from your room. You can also stay in a cottage out in the grounds instead of a standard room, which feels more like a stay in the country than a hotel booking.

The estate's chefs cook the meals using local, seasonal ingredients. In autumn that means the produce of the Walloon harvest, and the food is designed to be balanced and filling after a day outdoors.

The page does not name a lead teacher, so ask reception who will be leading the yoga and meditation sessions on your dates. Reception also handles bookings. Places should be reserved in advance, because spots on the programme are limited to what the estate can host.

Bring comfortable clothes for outdoor sessions, layers for cool autumn mornings and proper walking shoes for the trails, which can be muddy after rain.
