About the venue

The Dragonfly Community Center is a property made up of a farmstead and 22 hectares of forest in a very remote spot in southern Aveyron, about an hour from Albi or Saint-Affrique. It is run by the Dragonfly Cayla association. Its aim is to host personal and spiritual development workshops and retreats, as well as art workshops.

It can host groups of up to 20 people, or more if extra accommodation is added in nearby gîtes (5-10 minutes by car). There are 7 bedrooms spread across 2 buildings, an activity room of around 85 m2 that opens onto the outdoors, a large lounge and a dining room, plus several outdoor areas.

The buildings, put up in the 18th century by farming monks, have kept the warm feel of an old farmhouse. The place has a powerful spiritual energy that blends strength and gentleness. It's an ideal setting for getting together, working, recharging and sharing ideas.

The 360° views over the Aveyron from the rock formations of the Laval-Roquecezière cliffs, the spring water, the magnificent Hérault canyons about an hour's drive to the east, canoe or electric boat trips down the Tarn through the Razès gorges, and the sacred music festival at the Abbaye de Sylvanès in summer all make it the ideal place to hold a retreat.

Our 2026 rates for groups of up to 12 people, meals not included:
2 nights: €500
3 nights: €700
4 nights: €850
Activity room hire: €50 per day
