Having a baby is wonderful, but it’s also eye-searingly exhausting. With this in mind, we’re offering a seriously lucky family the chance refresh and recharge at a blissful new postnatal at Manoir La Croix de la Jugie – a beautiful 18th century manor house in the Limousin region of France.
Launched by London mum, Francophile, and canal boat-dweller Clio Wood, together with Caroline Bragg, personal trainer extraordinaire and studio instructor at Frame Shoreditch, &Breathe Postnatal retreat is designed to cater for the whole family (that’s one or two parents, along with baby up to 18 months old, plus a toddler up to the age of five). Described as “the perfect getaway to give mum some time for herself – and get back in touch with her postnatal body – while dad and baby sneak in some precious bonding moments”, Caroline – who is fully-trained in pre- and post-natal exercise – is on-hand to provide everything from cardio and toning to pilates and massages for mum (and dad). Plus, there’ll also be plenty of time to explore the beautiful grounds and idyllic setting…
