In the heart of charming Chantilly, right next to the town's captivating château, lies a well-kept secret - the idyllic, recently reinvigorated Potager des Princes (Princes' Kitchen Gardens), which open each year with a Festival of Daffodils.
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.
please visit the gardens' website for full details as they are announced.
