Look inside

Thanks to its temperate climate, the Sarthe offers gardeners a good many liberties. That is why you can find here almost everything France has in the way of beautiful gardens: traditional, landscaped, enclosed, flower, rural… Their creators are sometimes led by passion to venture in the direction of more exotic types: Moorish, Chinese or Mediterranean. Often serving as green jewel-cases graced by historic houses, the gardens of the Sarthe actually offer their best quality in this book: their authenticity.
