Motivated by her love for connecting wonderful people, Ashley Macleod created the concept of the Artemisia Ladies Soirée in 2022. During these cocktail evenings held in gorgeous locations, women connect with friends, old and new, inspire each other by telling stories about important women in their lives, and raise money for a women's charity - each story told is matched with a donation by the event's sponsor/donor.

​

The first event, held in Pietrasanta, Tuscany, was a great success! In 2023, Artemisia Ladies Soirées will be held in Tuscany, Lisbon, and the south of France. Subscribe to our newsletter to stay informed.

​

The Artemisia Women's Retreat was born from Ashley's love for creating powerful experiences that connect people with beauty through art and nature. She believes that through awakening our senses we experience life deeply, richly and fully. Ashley is delighted to share her love for the many places she calls home, guiding her guests through the hidden gems of the area. She offers behind-the-scenes access to artists and artisans in their studios, and gathers skilled therapists to offer relaxing sessions like sound bath, Reiki, massage, and more.

 

In 2023, the Artemisia Women's Retreats, based in the beautiful village of Correns, Provence, will be held from 10-14 May and 11-15 October. These retreats have a maximum of six women. Reserve your space with Ashley or her co-host Oriane. If you are interested in a shorter retreat or a private retreat, please contact Ashley.
