The History of the Park Garden;
The original arboretum (of 3853m2) was created from a passion of the former owner. He worked for the 'Postes' and exchanged tree seeds with colleagues from all over the world. After the seeds had grown into trees, he had them brought in a beautiful detailed hand-drawn map with name, year and origin mentioned. This special map hangs in the house. (see photo).
The now tall trees provide a pleasant cooling in the hot summer days and various birds and owls have made their nests there. The garden has an abundance of roses, shrubs and plants that bloom alternately, which ensures that it is a true floral display every season.
In autumn, the garden looks like something out of a fairy tale: during that period, the house is surrounded by a 'carpet of fragrant pink and white flowering cyclamen'. (see photo).
In the distance there is a view of the gently sloping meadows, surrounded by hedges where Charolais cows graze peacefully. Large park gardens also border on both sides of the garden. In short: there is a serene silence all around.
The area
From the house you can walk straight into the rolling countryside, with beautiful walks in unspoiled nature along streams and meadows where cows graze and seek shade under old, thick oak trees.
In the village there is a restaurant on the square, next to the old Romanesque church with frescoes dating from the 12th century.
15 minutes away in the car is a large swimming lake, remarkably enough not yet discovered by mass tourism. There are various activities for adults and children of all ages, such as a climbing forest course, pedaloes, etc. In the summer there are daily flea markets and fairs in the wider area.
