Relais de Camont— 1724-2024
The Relais de Camont Writers and Artists Residency, a restored 300-year-old French farmhouse, is an intimate year-round residence for all disciplines. Camont, located near Agen, is just three hours from Paris by fast train and is a haven of quiet productivity in the rural French landscape. Self-funded and independent work is encouraged in a charming creative ambiance along a slow-moving French canal. The Relais de Camont is your quiet workplace in Southwest France.
There are three comfortable bedrooms/studios, each with an ensuite private bathroom, two separate artist’s studios—l’Atelier and La Cabane— as well as convivial shared spaces (kitchen and salon), a large meandering potager garden, a shaded terrace, and an acre of plein air working spaces in a shady park along a quiet French canal.
Open year-round, the comfortable farmhouse space is inclusive and inviting. See open Calendar dates here.
“Women at Work” residencies are a safe haven for solo women travelers and small groups. Couples, families, and friends groups are welcome to book the entire space.
Private retreats are welcome. Intimate gatherings of four retreat goers can be fully catered. Ask for details.
Get lost in your work in the charming French countryside of neighboring fields and orchards.
