A retreat venue in the heart of the Jura

Set in the heart of the highest of the Jura's blind valleys, amid exceptionally rich natural surroundings, the venue makes it easy to reconnect with nature and invites us to respect ourselves deeply and to flourish. It encourages openness and helps us discover our true nature through the sense of wonder sparked by the natural resources and elements found on this Jura site. See more

Guidance for personal development and self-fulfilment

Christelle settled in the village of Les Planches-près-Arbois in 2013 and founded Re-Sources Jura in 2017 to bring to life her vision of a place that welcomes people and supports their personal growth, in harmony with the nature around us.

Working with her, and drawing on her connection to the place, you’ll be able to bring your workshop or retreat plans to life.

Below you will find details of the accommodation, rooms and natural spaces where she will welcome you.

ACCOMMODATION

• Gite des Planches
  Le Gîte des Planches is a venue for 30 guests in the Jura's highest reculée (a steep-sided blind valley). It offers plenty of ways to enjoy the restorative natural surroundings of the valley.
  Once a well-known holiday camp, the gîte is gradually becoming a place for sharing and taking part, hosting restorative retreats, and an ideal spot for getting back in touch with nature. It is 10 minutes from the Cascade des Tufs waterfall and on the GR59 hiking trails.

LE RELAIS DE LA RECULEE
This old stone building, steeped in history, once served as a hotel and coaching inn on the road to Switzerland. It has kept its character, and you can still read “Entrée de l’Hôtel” above the door… Today its attic is home to the Relais gîte, and there is also a large, comfortable guest room, ideal for restorative retreats on your own or for two in our peaceful natural setting.

• Le Gîte du Relais
  This brand-new gîte on the third floor of the guest house, in the old attic, looks out over the village, and the living room has a superb view of the cliff. With 3 bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen and living area and a lovely room under the eaves on the upper level, it's a warm, comfortable place. You reach it by beautiful old staircases that bear witness to the history of the house. Le Gîte du Relais is ideal for small groups of 8 people, particularly for personal development workshops or seminars.
• Its attic common room, Arianta, is a place to gather and share the journey together.

• The guest room on the ground floor is ideal for couples or solo guests, especially for restorative retreats or individual therapeutic stays. It can also be booked with the Relais gîte as an extra bedroom.

ACTIVITY ROOMS

In its former barn, Le Relais de la Reculée has 6 activity rooms as well as the reception room. Each one is named after a plant or animal species found in the valley. See the rooms
