It is no surprise that the loveliest gardens in France are
part of large Chateaux or grand Estates.
And today’s feature takes you from the medieval gardens of Château
Gourdon, on to the 16th century castle of Chenonceau, through the 17th
century castles of Ballue and Vaux-le-Vicomte and on to the Belle Époque
20th century villa of the French Rothschilds in Cap Ferrat. So see, not all of me is modern and severe ... I do have a romantic side to my aesthetic ... however tiny!!!
