    The long pleached-lime drive only allows you to see some fine gates. Arriving at said gates a stunning but not overtly grand Chateau sits in a lawned front edged with fine mature hedges and large clipped fat Pyramids . A sense of anticipation is created. The lawns nearest the house sport a lovely patterned box edging. You advance around the righthand side of the Chateau to the main formal gardens ! There is so much more to see !
