I'am a visual artist, mother of three, and a substitute educator in a youth center in Limoges. After many years supporting diverse audiences through art therapy and creative expression, I felt the need to create a space for renewal—a place where anyone can take a pause, reconnect with nature, create, and breathe.

Le Mas des Sens was born from this desire.
A welcoming, inspiring, and shared space where nature and humanity gently interact, inviting calm, creativity, and self-presence.

Guided by strong ecological values, we designed and renovated the cottage with respect for life. Most of the work was carried out using natural materials, chosen for their low environmental impact, durability, and ability to create a healthy and warm atmosphere. Each space was thoughtfully crafted to balance comfort, simplicity, and environmental respect.

Our ecological commitments are fully integrated into life at Le Mas des Sens:

• Water is used responsibly, with rainwater collectors for irrigation and outdoor use.

• Energy partly comes from solar panels, promoting more responsible consumption.

• Waste sorting is made easy with dedicated recycling bins for our guests.

• A compost system in the garden allows organic waste to nourish the soil.

Today, we live here with our youngest daughter, Meena, aged 9, while our two older children have flown the nest. Three discreet and sensitive cats also share this lively space.

By my side, my partner Mika shares this adventure. A private nurse in Eymoutiers with a passion for architecture, renovation, and vintage vehicles, he carried out the majority of the work at Le Mas with patience and ingenuity, giving the place a warm and authentic soul.

His attentive eye on the spaces, materials, and light has greatly contributed to making Le Mas des Sens a living refuge, deeply reflecting who we are: a simple, respectful, and inspiring place dedicated to renewal and connection.
