ANNABELLE GARDEN

Marie-Claude and Franck have a passion for gardens, as does their son Arnaud. They focus in particular on hydrangeas, with 700 cultivars in 15 species gleaned from all over Europe. Classified as a Remarkable Garden of France, this paradise comprises three areas covering 6,500^m2 around a ^17th-century house. The Jardin des Bardodes, known as the Jardin à l'anglaise, is the oldest and features a pond, a stream, and a collection of trees and shrubs such as acers, roses and hydrangeas. The second is Hydrangeas and the third is Jardin de la Fontaine.
