O atrakciji

Brze činjenice: Madame Elisabeth, unuka Luja XV, umjesto potpuno aristokratskog života, brinula se o vlastitom povrtnjaku i voćnjaku na ovih 9 hektara. Imanje još uvijek uzgaja preko 40 sorti starih jabuka i krušaka, od kojih neke datiraju iz 18. stoljeća.

Istaknuto: Svake jeseni, drevni espalijeri krušaka na imanju savijaju se pod težinom sorti poput 'Beurré Hardy' i 'Doyenné du Comice', ispunjavajući zrak medno-slatkim mirisom koji možete pratiti i zatvorenih očiju. Baštovani još uvijek koriste tehnike rezidbe iz 18. stoljeća koje se prenose generacijama, čineći ovo živim muzejom francuske hortikulturne historije.

Insajderski savjeti

Pack a picnic to eat on the grassy parterre facing the farmhouse, a spot most tourists walk right past.
Bring binoculars for spotting red squirrels that dart between the hornbeam hedges, especially active during September nut harvesting.
The potager (vegetable garden) is easiest accessed via the eastern gate on Rue Champ Lagarde instead of the main entrance.
Rainy days are actually ideal as the wet gravel paths are near empty and the damp air amplifies the scent of fallen apples.
