A Private Retreat at Lapeyrouse Lands
A quiet place to reconnect—with nature, with each other, and with something a little different.
Tucked into an isolated part of a working innovation farm, our cottage offers a peaceful escape surrounded by open land, trees, and fresh air. Designed for comfort and simplicity, it’s the perfect setting for a romantic getaway or a quiet reset.
Lapeyrouse Lands is an innovation farm focused on exploring better ways to work with the land. While your stay is private and relaxing, you’ll be surrounded by a living, evolving landscape—pastures, wildlife, and ongoing projects designed to improve the health and sustainability of a small farm.
You can engage as much or as little as you like:
- Take a walk and explore the property
- Sit outside and enjoy the quiet
- Just stay in and unplug
- Or make it your home base for other events
There’s no agenda here—just space to breathe.
