An enchanting garden on four levels, a perfect harmony of Italian terraces and French parterres.

No need to be a botanist to fall under the spell of the garden of the Château de Brécy. On the other hand, a GPS is not useless to find it! As soon as the magnificently crafted gate of the castle appears, the surprise is total. How could such a sumptuousness nestle in this remote corner of the countryside? La Varende was already asking itself the question. And he had not seen the strange bronze creature signed François-Xavier Lalanne and named "Lapin à vent de Tourtour" enthroned in the middle of the courtyard, nor could he admire the restoration work of the owners of the place, Didier and Barbara Wirth... To access the garden, all you have to do is push a heavy door and like Alice leading to a wonderful world, you are still forbidden. It takes time to appreciate this enchanting garden, laid out on four levels, with its perfect harmony of Italian-style terraces and French-style flowerbeds. From one perspective to another, from an embroidery square to a massif of topiaries, from the medieval vegetable garden to the rose garden, from the 14th century church to the sculpted basins, everything evokes elegance and serenity, even in the choice of plant colours. Here and there wooden benches invite you to enjoy a beautiful view and the last rays of the sun, the tranquility of the place barely disturbed by the murmur of the fountains. Behind the wrought iron gate that encloses the upper terrace, the view reaches the sky. It may be there, the lost paradise...

Wij vonden dit een mooie tuin met veel buxus, maar wel verzorgd.

Beautiful, symmetrical, formal gardens of country château in Brecy. €10 entry, children free. No other facilities other than free parking and toilet. Pleasant environment with a precisely designed mature layout. Stunning stone work with impressive double headed lions and entrance gate.
