The swimming pool, with its Roman-style steps, is a calm, discreet oasis for guests. Rose bushes and lavender border the pool. Close by is a magnificent cedar, planted around 1650. Its dappled shade offers the perfect spot to relax.

Take a leisurely stroll along the paths that crisscross the parkland. Enjoy bird-song and, in summer, the chirp of cicadas. Breathe in the tangy scent of the pine trees. Rest a while on a bench – chat, read or simply dream.
