This is a place where the gardens deserve a leading role, not an afterthought to the house. Their geometric beds make design visible from a distance and in detail. You can then relate that outdoor order to the château, creating a visit centered on cultivated space.
What to look for
Give the ornamented kitchen garden as much time as the house.
Useful to know
Give the ornamental kitchen garden generous time before or after the house.
