Inspired
 by the mediaeval history of the site, Alix and Hubert Mourot have 
recreated an enclosed garden amid the lovingly restored buildings of the
 farm of Bois Richeux. You can admire their work in the elegant 
chequerboard design with paving and woven wicker features. The raised 
squares and plots bordered with box tree are planted with magical and 
symbolic herbs and medicinal plants. The garden nourishes the body, 
heart and soul, and is an ideal spot for resting and dreaming, as well 
as offering visitors an original insight into these familiar plants with
 such special qualities.
