Welcome to the Dharmahouse! We are a retreat and education centre in the south of France, drawing inspiration from the ideal of living close to nature. It is our aim to explore a way of life centred around ecological and sustainable ethics, placing an emphasis on integrating mindful awareness into daily activities.

The Dharmahouse is based in the foothills of the Cévennes mountain range overlooking the Cèze River in the south of France, surrounded by national park and majestic views. The property is located on a hilltop in eight acres of farm land encompassing a variety of plants, herbs and trees, such as olive, almond, apple, peach, plum, mimosa, fig and apricot trees. The center is active in growing food and structuring the land with permacultural ideas and designs.

At various times throughout the year we are open to visitors and hold courses and retreats exploring a wide range of topics, including low impact building, permaculture, sustainable agriculture, meditation and yoga.

We are registered as a non-profit association under French law (loi du 1er Juillet 1901).
