Le Sentier Tranquille is situated on the edge of a hamlet alongside a track which leads up into the Ariége forest in the foothills of the Pyrenees.  It is an area of forest and fell walking with starting points for mountain walks not far away.

We have designed the centre itself, which is made up of a block of village houses and farm buildings, in order to offer several and varied places for sitting, reading, drawing, meditating, talking, relaxing.  You can use all of these if you are here on a daily stay basis.  Breakfast is provided and you can take what other meals with us that you choose.

Some visitors never leave the centre, some go no further than they can walk, but if you have chosen not to hire a car, we will always offer you a ride out to anywhere we might be going, most often one of the local markets.

We believe that the ambience of Le Sentier Tranquille is conducive to the quiet recuperation which many people are finding that they need and the daily stay basis is designed to give as much flexibility as possible while leaving open the possibility of therapeutic work on a sessional basis if you find that is what you want when you arrive here.  My sessional rate is £27 (€30) per hour, but if you found you were using sessions frequently, we would not charge you more than the therapeutic stay rate of £95 (€110) per day, if that were lower.
