JARDINS DU MANOIR DE FAVRY

The Manoir is surrounded by 4 enclosed and secret gardens, giving unity and balance to the residence bordered by the Vaiges river.

Set within a historic framework, with a modern design bias, they have been created, designed, composed and interpreted since 2005 with a highly eclectic taste to enhance the buildings, while respecting the spirit of the place.
In this way, new perspectives are created, offering a play of light and shade around the gardens, but also a surprise effect between unexpected refinement and the pastoral simplicity of the site. This is how Favry awoke from his slumber

Not to be missed:
A medieval vegetable garden has been transformed into a symbolic garden. Its "living" wicker trellises are punctuated by oculi and willow gazebos enclosing plessis planted with vegetables in the form of the Cross of Saint Andrew.

The formal garden is the garden's strong point, with its use of plants in the same way as minerals, creating walls and arcades. It is enhanced by its boxwood topiaries and the architectural and sculptural pruning of the hornbeams. A rose garden, nestling in an embroidery of boxwood, backed by laurel benches punctuated by topiaries, borders this regular garden.

Created in 2016, 2 new gardens, with plant architecture in the making.
The Daedalus, with its pure, graphic design, is attached to the dwelling, whose perspectives are worked diagonally with its topiary and its play of checkerboards in counterpoint. Deliberately smaller in scale for an intimate setting, it contrasts with the more spectacular setting of the theatre of greenery on the east facade.

The Cloister Garden or Ornamental Orchard. An intimate space in a square-plan country setting, it creates a linear walk around a vertically inscribed gazebo.

Finally, the park and its groves of veteran trees, bordered by the river and surrounded by islands and peninsulas, suggest places to stroll and offer a dazzling festival of colour in autumn.

It is also possible to visit the inside of the Manor House by appointment between May and October (groups of 12 people minimum). Visits are also possible during the European Heritage Days.
