Jardins de Marqueyssac

  4.0/5 (1 ratings)

Gardenvisit Editorial

The Marqueyssac gardens are on a hill overlooking the Dordogne River, with splendid views. The primary planting is boxwood hedging, with cypress and wild cyclamen. The box is more sculpted than clipped, with the organic shapes harmonizing with the landscape. The clipping is done, by hand, with only four gardeners and the planting dates from the nineteenth century.
Address Vézac, France
Opening times All year. Daily.

    This garden is a little like a whoopy whistle- it has a tendency to unravel, extending on and on along a long very high piece of ground above the Dordogne river, which hugs close to its rocky feet. The views are stunning. It is principally a green garden, but very restful especially on a hot day, as a lot is carved out of scrubby Oak forest.
    This place is def. worth a visit, but wear strong shoes !
