Is a Margaretha Montagu Retreat The Right Retreat For YOU?
In my experience, the make-or-break factors that determine whether your retreat is a life-enhancing experience are not the location, the affordability, the food, or the activities…more important than anything else is a fully qualified retreat leader with at least a decade of experience of leading retreats and a long list trustworthy testimonials to prove it.
Bonjour et Bienvenue! I’m Margaretha.
My mission is to help you reconnect with nature, with horses as your guides, and develop effective stress management strategies during life transitions that can be incorporated seamlessly into your busy personal and professional life. Strategies that empower you to thrive during transitions, make a difference in other people’s lives and live a long, happy, healthy and fulfilling life. A life full of adventure, purpose and achievement – in alignment with your unique talents, values and ideals. I am a retired medical doctor with more than 20 years of experience helping patients avoid the mental and physical damage stress can cause. I have been leading nature retreats since 2006 and I am the published author of 6 books.
If you are fed up with feeling overwhelmed, insecure and exhausted and yearn to reconnect with nature and feel safe in the knowledge that you can handle stressful life transitions, if you are working towards becoming the very best version of yourself, living your best life, and doing whatever it is that you were put on the planet to do, then I can help.
Either by inviting you to come to a small group reconnect with nature retreat here at my 200-year-old, lovingly restored French farmhouse, on the edge of an ancient forest, in the sun-blessed south of France, in the presence of my Friesian and Falabella horses or by joining me on an online course/challenge, inspired by my small herd.
Retreats: You are STILL good enough! In fact, you are better than you have ever been before. Now is the perfect time to manifest your next chapter while walking a section of the Camino de Santiago de Compostela in the southwest of France. Find out more.
Courses: Even if you are wrestling with this life transition, you are still the awesome, intelligent, resourceful and generous woman you have always been, but your life purpose might need an update to enable you to manifest your next chapter. Find out more.
Maybe you feel mentally and physically drained and overwhelmed by the never-ending and ever-increasing demands that going through life transitions is making of you.
I know exactly how you feel.

I have been through more life transitions than I care to count while feeling overwhelmed by the possibility that I might lose my sight, for the last 30 years.
Coping with this fear, with the seemingly insurmountable challenges I have to face, sometimes daily, has taught me more than I learned during a decade of medical training and two decades of experience in medical practice.
As my sight continued to deteriorate over the years, I learned not only how to manage my fear, apprehension and doubt, but to live a rewarding, meaningful and fulfilling life despite it.
Over the last 10+ years, I have had the privilege of helping dozens of people, many have become friends for life, and return year after year, to reconnect with nature and recharge their batteries before or during life transitions in one of the most breathtakingly beautiful corners of France, in the foothills of the mighty Pyrenées mountains.
Helping people navigate Life Transitions, Life Changes, and Life Challenges and starting New Chapters during solo/small group nature reconnect retreats, that include walking part of the Camino de Santiago de Compostela and discovering how horses can help us manage stress, is what I do best.
Not sure which retreat will suit you best? I’m happy to chat about the different options, so you can choose the best retreat for you. Each retreat is different, and one might suit you better than another, so I like to chat with each guest before they book, to ensure the best possible match. I love these chats, they allow us to get to know each other a bit beforehand, and offer you the opportunity to ask all the questions you may have, for example how to get here, before you pay the deposit. Just email me at welcome2gasconygmail.com to arrange a chat.
“Margaretha herself was the best thing about the retreat. Quietly kind, supportive, informative, insightful, and fun! She and I, and my one fellow guest at Esprit Meraki, formed such a unique and special bond and I think we will be friends for life!” Review from Julia D., testimonial verified by Bookretreats.com
You get one life. Make it rewarding, meaningful, purposeful, fulfilling and magical by investing in yourself.

Going through a life transition? then I look forward to hearing from you,
