Music Movement SAS was established in 2025 when founder Isobel Pearson moved to France. Pure Gardères is the company’s first property and serves as its headquarters, where Isobel lives on site and personally welcomes guests. The name Music Movement reflects the two fundamental pillars we believe are essential to a fulfilling life: music and movement. This philosophy runs through everything we create. At Pure Gardères, guests can expect a rare blend of deep relaxation, creative energy, and warm, attentive hospitality. Whether you’re joining one of our intimate wellness retreats or staying as a hotel guest, we aim to nourish both body and soul in a beautiful rural setting. We are a small, hands-on team dedicated to creating meaningful and memorable experiences. From the moment you arrive, you’ll feel the care and intention behind every detail — from the thoughtfully prepared spaces to the personal touches that make you feel truly at home.

Pure Gardères is a boutique wellness retreat and luxury guesthouse set in the heart of the Gers countryside in southwest France. Owned by Music Movement SAS, the property blends elegant French rural charm with a vibrant, soulful energy inspired by the nearby Marciac Jazz Festival. Guests love the peaceful yet lively atmosphere. The estate features five beautifully appointed luxury bedrooms and two stylish glamping tents in summer, all set within private gardens overlooking rolling hills. A large heated pool, outdoor lounge areas, and a wellness space with infrared sauna and cryotherapy offer the perfect balance of relaxation and rejuvenation. Mornings begin with gentle yoga and breathwork, while evenings often bring live music, DJ sets by the firepit, or quiet dinners under the stars. Farm-to-table meals made with local produce and fine regional wines are served in the elegant dining room or alfresco. Whether you’re joining one of our intimate wellness retreats or staying as a hotel guest, Pure Gardères offers a rare combination of deep rest, creative energy, and warm hospitality in one of the most beautiful corners of France.

Pure Gardères is perfectly placed in the heart of the Gers, one of France’s most beautiful and unspoilt rural regions. Just a short drive away lies the charming bastide town of Marciac, world-famous for its internationally renowned Jazz in Marciac Festival, which fills the town with music every summer. The area has a strong musical soul, and the festival’s energy often spills over into the wider countryside. Wine lovers will feel right at home here. The estate sits between two celebrated appellations: the elegant whites and reds of Saint-Mont and the powerful, structured wines of Madiran, famous for its Tannat grape. Several excellent wineries and domaines are within easy reach, many offering tastings and tours. The Gers is also renowned for its rich Gascon food culture. Weekly markets brim with local produce, foie gras, duck, and Armagnac. The region’s culinary heritage is deeply rooted in tradition, yet full of warmth and generosity — much like the people who live here. Beyond food and wine, you can explore rolling hills with distant views of the Pyrenees, visit historic bastide towns, or follow the Armagnac Route to discover local distilleries. Whether you’re seeking cultural experiences, gastronomic adventures, or simply the quiet beauty of the countryside, the Gers offers a wonderful mix of discovery and relaxation, all within easy reach of Pure Gardères.
