Let yourself be tempted by a romantic walk in the English Garden of the castle de Rambouillet, in the direction of the Age of Enlightenment!
The English Garden was created in the 1770s at the request of the Duke of Penthièvre, grandson of Louis XIV, who wanted to offer his family a new entertainment that was in vogue at the time!
Following in the footsteps of this great 18th century lord, a bucolic walk is offered to you with its winding paths, its picturesque little bridges, its groves planted with exotic species, or its rocky heap from which a river flows... Pay attention to the game of perspectives! Without knowing it, the paths lead you to real surprises!
The curiosity not to be missed in Rambouillet ? The Seashell Cottage (Chaumière aux coquillages)
.
This small rustic building reveals a marvelous interior decoration, all decorated with shells. Not to mention its original furniture signed François Foliot II.
You will not see such a treasure anywhere else!
