Jardins Secrets

30 years of sharing and transmission in complicity with nature. Enter the history of a unique and mixed garden.
Discover exotic architecture, an abundance of ideas and flowers for a surprising and serene break.

Throughout the visit, the murmur of the fountains combine with the exuberance of the flowers to bring to life a daring architecture of carved wood.
Secret Gardens of a stubborn and passionate man and woman, this unusual and abundant place is a hymn to creation. Patios, courtyards, galleries, paths, arbors, lounges, ponds and fountains are organized like a giant puzzle to result in an innovative and mixed garden where country poetry and oriental refinement brilliantly come together. The different spaces each have their own identity and are all incentives to dream: the Lodges of Madness, the Cour des Calades, the Andalusian Garden, the Allée des Roses, the Priest's Garden, the Jardin Délice, the Galerie des Palmettes or the Lyre Gallery…
The unity of this architectural and landscape ensemble nevertheless emerges through the founding elements of the Secret Gardens, always present and always renewed: wood, flowers, pebbles, lime mortar, copper and water.
From April to October, it receives an average of 40 visitors, who discover an extraordinary family story, a unique and unusual site, a guaranteed change of scenery...
Our services: shop, terraces and lounges for snacks and refreshments, reading and picnic corners, loyalty card, free discovery game for children, wedding photos, free car and car parking, site accessible at 50% for people with reduced mobility with adapted toilets.
Thanks to the numerous sheltered spaces (arbors, lounges, galleries), the visit remains pleasant both in rainy weather and in heat waves.
Screening of a 13-minute film on the history of our gardens as a preamble to the visit which is then carried out freely thanks to signs and interpretation panels, photos, explanatory totems...

The spice route passes through the Secret Gardens!
The scent of spices has always attracted the curious, the dreamers and the gourmets in search of exoticism.
Nicole and Alain are one of them. They had fun dramatizing a new space by building around the word “Spice” a colorful and refined decor where a farandole of fruits, vegetables, plants, herbs, spices, come on stage in their most beautiful finery .
Joyful and unexpected interlude offered to visitors for the 30th anniversary of the Secret Gardens.
“Where the grass smiles, the spice laughs”
