Over 100,000 flowers announce the arrival of spring at this stunning and romantic garden. In 2002 restoration work by Yves and Annabel Bienaivé was completed and this previously dilapidated pheasant park reopened to the public. From the entrance's ceramics and an enchanting pool to ornamental gazebos remoulded into aviaries, an orchard, rose garden, animal reserve and the terraced kitchen garden, there is plenty to keep visitors amused.
