There is a page for each garden, and features on special moments in the year and organised events, all of them bound to make you want to spend some time with friends or family in these gardens, unique, exceptional places to be discovered and rediscovered each season…
Villages and Towns of exception
Built century after century, our towns and villages are the guardians of our region's identity. Set amongst green hills and valleys and moorlands and forests, eight of France's “Loveliest Villages” and ten “Loveliest Detours” reveal the wealth of know-how, tradition and history in the region. These authentic destinations with their remarkable architecture make it more than worthwhile concocting an original itinerary taking in old stone and greenery. A great opportunity for you to get away and discover the charm and character of our picturesque towns and villages.
