This autumn we're taking you to France — at least in spirit. We've chosen La belle France as the guest country of our Gourmet Knitting Retreat, which feels only natural, since Nature's Luxury is itself half French. Our two workshop leaders joining us for this retreat also come from the land of savoir-vivre.

We are delighted to welcome Julie Dubreux, alias Julie Knits in Paris, and Chloé Gouysse, expat and founder of the Wildwuchs Atelier in Bonn!

Julie is known for her bold, experimental brioche and cable designs. She will teach two workshops and, on top of that, create an exclusive design made especially for our retreat — we are already very excited!

Chloé's seminar takes us into the world of plants and herbs. We'll discover native botanicals, explore their properties, and learn how to create our own personal tea blend — a fragrant, sensory experience.

Our Vive-la-France days combine creative inspiration with true pleasure: knitting workshops, fine cuisine, wellness, and the joy of being together. And of course, the traditional excursion to Münster with a visit to the wonderful farmers market is not to be missed.

We very much look forward to unforgettable days with our knitting-passionate guests!

Our retreat takes place at Landhaus Eggert — a hidden gem in the heart of Münsterland!

Nestled in idyllic countryside, this English-style country estate sits on a gentle hill above the Werse valley. The family run hotel in fifth generation combines tasteful architecture and timeless elegance with outstanding cuisine and warm, heartfelt hospitality. A beautifully designed wellness area with swimming pool makes for a truly restorative stay all round.

A hydro-massage is included in the price. Additional wellness treatments can be booked separately directly with Landhaus Eggert – ideally prior to arrival or alternatively on site. Our guests receive a 10 % discount on all treatments. Furthermore, a voucher for a guided tour through the old town of Münster is included as well, and a bicycle is available free of charge for the entire duration of the stay – e-bikes at a small additional fee, all subject to availability.

This way, our retreat also offers non-knitting companions appealing alternatives to enjoy their stay to the fullest!
