Land : The area around the dwelling is a tangle of flowerbeds delimiting espaliered spaces dedicated to the four points of the compass. Each aspect offers a different view....the view looking down on the river.....or looking up at the outbuildings.....the view looking towards the tall poplars....or the more intimate, sheltered view in the shade of the buildings. Water is also omnipresent, either in the immediate vicinity or further back, calmly flowing towards a beautiful pond! The constant is the lush, unspoilt scenery, where the rare purity of the water is home to a host of trout and crayfish... validating the river's coveted first category status. Roe deer do not shy away from this island of unspoilt (human) predators, not hesitating to come and complete the picture. Poplars, oaks, plane trees, beeches and weeping willows provide shade and coolness in the undergrowth and pastures. A few goats have taken up residence on the higher ground, ensuring that the grounds are kept well-mown. Further to the north of the property, an area has been given over to fruit trees, as well as a vegetable garden that the owners' green thumb has made very prosperous.
