Indulgences:

 

Well-being & beauty

Caroline, an English friend established locally for the last 7 years, can come to Escrimis-La-Chapelle for half or full days to provide wonderfully relaxing therapies to our guests in their bedrooms or by the pool.  She is fully trained and also works in a beauty institute in Condom.  Her treatments range from well-established Swedish massage and reflexology to more unusual Chinese foot baths or even chocolate wrap!  More details can be found on her leaflet maison d'être.  A one day visit includes on average 10 treatments: depending on the type they can vary between 20 minutes and 1 hour in length so you can combine several short treatments or fewer longer ones. Do please feel free to contact her directly with questions and for booking treatments.  Caroline: Tel 0033 5.53.97.37.69.  Mob 0033 6.33.77.74.72.  email: carolinebray@wanadoo.fr

Caroline can also bring along her French "esthéticienne" colleague Muriel. Muriel offers (French!) manicures, pedicures, facials, "Wellbox" sessions, make-up and other essential beauty maintenance treatments... Please email Caroline who will liaise with Muriel to answer your questions.

IDEA! Caroline and Muriel can delivery a "relax and beautify" long weekend for the girls in the fun and relaxed atmosphere of the privacy of Escrimis-la-Chapelle - ask for details.

Qi-Gong

A type of ancient Chinese gymnastic (pronounced "Chi-Kong").  Whether you know this technique from your Yoga and Tai-Chi, or if you simply want to try out this gentle exercise (slow supple focused movements with breathing pattern), Lionel Lebon is happy to come to the house for your party (any age or fitness level). Professionally trained at a Paris Chinese Cultural Centre, Lionel runs Qi-Gong well-being and relaxation classes locally. To quote Lionel: "More than any other practice, this flowing ancient energising Chinese discipline keeps you fit, helps to improve the immune system, concentration and memory." Sounds useful?! Contact Lionel (bilingual French-English) on his mobile +33 6 63 79 06 58 or by email: llebon22@aol.com for information and booking.

Sightseeing by Classic Car

Jean-Paul Cazelles runs Chronotours a company that hires out classic cars with their owner-drivers, and he has put together a home-to-home chauffeured day tour tailored for Escrimis-la-Chapelle!  

The chauffeurs are passionate about their genuine gems of shiny metal and leather ("as comfortable as a sofa on wheels"), and are also knowledgeable guides (in French) on Gascony.  Of course the outing includes stopping for a lazy gascon lunch: choose from the country charm of L’Auberge de Larressingle, the classic haute cuisine of La Ferme de Flaran, or the heavens of Michelin-starred gastronomy at La table des Cordeliers…  Take a look at the prospectus which shows some of the cars and details the itinerary.  Jean-Paul is happy to adapt the day to suit your desires and do ask for help with writing an email in French for a booking.
