Forget everything anybody has ever told you about colivings. For our 3rd birthday this year, our mission is to debunk all the myths and make you experience THE TRUE MAGIC of coliving – the way we believe coliving should be!

“Not worth it”

“Hostels with a coworking space”

“Not enough privacy”

“Not enough of productive environment”

“No real community”

”Overpriced airbnb/hostel”

We’ve heard it all and we know a lot of it can be valid and a lot of spaces are catching “the coliving wave” and it can indeed be disappointing, BUT we can still say we’re closer to the pioneers in Coliving rather than the newbies, we’ve also learned from the best in the business and we can assure you, your experience can greatly vary from one space to another.

In the month of May we’re dropping all restrictions of check-in/checkout dates, 4-weeks min stay etc., and mixing up some of our favourite OG experienced nomads and colivers, willing to share all the ins and outs of the lifestyle, with anyone who is new to coliving, but curious to find out if this is something they might enjoy. Our goal is to inspire anyone who is unsure if coliving / nomad life is for them to give it a try and decide for themselves.

BENEFITS

• You will be able to exchange both with experienced nomads and people who are new to the lifestyle and probably have similar concerns like you
• It’s our birthday month, so our full community team will be on spot – Katia, Jeanne and Rossie (this never happened so far, as we’re usually alternating) ensuring you’ll have the best experience possible
• No long-term commitment – come for as little as a week – try it out and see, nothing to lose. Worst case: you won’t like it and that’s fair enough!

WHO IS THIS FOR:

•  If you are working from home but never tried coliving, nomading and are wondering if that’s something for you
•  If you are curious about the lifestyle but not sure where/how to start/who to talk to/how to give it a try with no risks
• If you are traveling for a while but never tried coliving because you’re not sure if it is for you or can not commit to the minimum stay
• If you have been to a coliving space once but it didn’t meet your expectations
• If you are curious about coliving but heard a lot of the myth above, which made you reluctant to try
• And lastly, if you are a seasoned nomad and coliver and want to pay it forward inspiring others to the lifestyle by sharing your experience

After 3 years of positive feedback (including people saying that staying with us changed their life) WE ARE READY and have never felt more confident that we can debunk all the worst myths you have ever heard about coliving and help you fall in love with traveling, coliving and community!

OFFER AVAILABLE ONLY FOR OUR BIRTHDAY MONTH!

Our 17th century Manor house, which is located just a minute walk from the main castle has apartments with private kitchens, which are family and pet friendly.

Extra charge for pet of 50 euros/week or 150 euros/month

Every year in June we host Wish for Our Heroes (WISH for OUR HEROES ) – an American association dedicated to helping war veterans and military families.
June in Normandy is a whole different world compared to any other time of the year. Being situated minuted away from the D-Day landing beaches, we’re in the very center of all official and official events related to the commemorations and celebrations of WWII and the Normandy landings.
Thanks to our long-lasting relationships with Wish for Our Heroes, in the last few years we’ve had the honor to host several WWII veterans, the cast of the TV series Band of Brothers and other Hollywood celebrities.

This July we are collaborating with our friends from Hacker Paradise again after hosting two very successful chapters last fall. If you want to join us at Chateau during this very beautiful time of the year, you can only book with them here.
They have privately booked the castle for their group.

During that time, we’re happy to open the Manor for travelling families. With its 3 apartments and total of 5 bedrooms and 3 kitchens, it can comfortably welcome 3 to 5 families who are willing to spend the summer in a beautiful safe space in nature, with all facilities for remote work and in the company of likeminded nomad families.
Minimum stay in each apartment is 1 week. For more information please contact us at welcome@chateaucoliving.com
You can find details about our apartments and their rates here:

For families – Chateau Coliving

We’re open for our regular coliving magic with 28 night minimum stay. As a community-focused coliving space, we welcome all our guests during the first days of each calendar month, ensuring that they spend their stay within the same group of people and foster meaningful connections.
Last couple of rooms are available to book here.

We have 2 open slots during the first two weeks of October for Retreats or Company offsites. We host only a handful of these per year and we absolutely enjoy it (not to mention that with an event professional and chef on the team, we’re also very good at it).
Wanna treat you team to a memorable offsite at the Chateau? Let’s do it together. More info here.

Starting October 20th to November 16th we’ll be hosting for the 4th time a Hacker Paradise trip. To join Chateau during this time you can only book directly with them here.

👉Struggling to finish a website copy or digital course?
👉Are distractions keeping you from getting in the flow?

It doesn’t have to be that way !

Join us at Chateau Coliving and connect with fellow creatives in a beautiful setting. Co-create a special month dedicated to you… a writer seeking inspiration, connection, support, collaboration, and uninterrupted focus amidst the breathtaking beauty of the French countryside.

Connect with fellow wordsmiths

Join a community of like-minded writers from around the world, each on their own unique journey. Share ideas, exchange feedback, and forge lasting connections as you collaborate and inspire one another in our supportive and vibrant environment. 

The magic of having a group of 10 to 15 writers from different genres, countries, and journeys is that we have so much to learn from each other. 

This is a collaborative experience; to connect and share with the other participants, everyone who attends will have the opportunity to enrich the group with something that resonates with them. 

Unleash your creative power

Revel in the tranquil atmosphere of Chateau Coliving, where every corner is steeped in history and charm. 

From the majestic chateau itself to the sprawling park and scenic vistas to the surrounding villages, natural and historical sites find the perfect setting to ignite your imagination and breathe life into your stories.

Find your focus

The Chateau is fully adapted for remote workers and digital nomads.

👉We have you fully covered with:
👉Fast internet
👉Comfortable workspace
👉Gym
👉All of the facilities that will make your stay more than comfortable and productive!

And don’t worry: you will have uninterrupted focus time to write.

Our intention is to facilitate connections and learning opportunities. The program will consist of 1-2 sessions a day focused on sharing ideas, feedback, and strategies to get into your writer’s flow and help you create.

→ Need extra accountability? Pair up with an accountability partner for the month and have private follow-up sessions on your progress. 

Recharge, explore, and relax

Take breaks from your writing routine to relax and recharge in our beautiful castle, complete with modern amenities and old-world charm. 

Whether you prefer to unwind with a leisurely stroll through the grounds, take a bubble bath, indulge in a delicious meal, or simply curl up with a book by the fireplace, you will find the perfect balance between productivity and self-care at Chateau Coliving. 

→ Visit the region during the weekends for fun activities and to socialise with fellow writers over shared meals, chats, movie nights, and autumnal walks. 

Participation in all of the community events is free (unless otherwise stated) and optional, according to your schedule and preferences.
