Visit the Jardins de Castillon
Winner of third place for the "Best Park in France 2005 prize" and this year winner of 'Garden of the Year 2009' with the Association of Garden and Horticultural Journalists. It is certainly my favourite garden in France and one of my top five gardens anywhere. It really is superb, make sure you don't miss it.
Les Jardins de Castillon were largely designed by Colette and Hubert Sainte-Beuve. The gardens, which cover about one hectare were first opened in 1985.
Situated in lower Normandy, near Bayeux there are a selection of different kinds of gardens linked by long alleys.
