The gardens are huge, so go with time. We were able to take our dog, so we were happy about that. The views of the Dordogne River are amazing.

wonderful topairy and very enjoyable gardens - well worth a visit

The only downside to this garden is that it's much more recent than all the castles and cities of the area. Only a 100 years old, not thousands!!! Visiting it felt a little bit like cheating.

This is worth the trip. We packed a pic-nic and had it in the gardens. So many hiking trails you could spend the day here.

After a considerable amount of walking... More
