The Garden of Marqueyssac is the private estate that was born from the history of a family dating from the 17th century. Today it is the most visited garden in Aquitaine and it is really worth to make a stop at least for couple hours. This unique garden open all year round daily 10 am - 7 pm with free parking. This info is important - to save your time and energy : The park is divided into two parts - the garden and the park. For less time visit a GARDEN only, it is located at the very beginning after you have bought ticket in a wonderful souvenir shop. Also here are a healthy cafe/restaurant with outside and inside sitting and absolutely breathtaking view over Dordogne Valley and couple castles such as Castelnaud, Fayrac and Beynac, ac exposed dinosaur, the aviary and small Chateau with couple open rooms to public. All of them is the main and best part of this site and the reason why the people come here. Second part is a PARK - huge, long way to walk, with the possibility of getting lost, not too much places to sit and relax. Map which given by ticket box is not help. Don't go if you are not planning to spend much time here and if you don't want to walk a lot. The best part of this walk is the view from Belvedere (800 meters walking distance from entry) to the manicured Roque Gageac village and its river. Les Jardins de Marqueyssac (Gardens) today listed as a National Historical Monument and this garden is unique with its beauty, culture and history.

Les Jardins d'Eau

Au coeur du Périgord noir dans un cadre magnifique où la nature vous apporte une qualité de vie exceptionnelle, bienvenue dans ce site dédié à la magie de la nature. Les 3 hectares des JARDINS D'EAU offrent un nouveau lieu de promenade qui ravira petits et grands, vacanciers ou scolaires. Leur originalité réside dans les éléments qui les composent : diversité des bassins, eaux calmes, cascades, ruisseaux, végétation luxuriante conférée par les lotus, fleurs aux multiples coloris et plus belles les unes que les autres. Les variétés présentes, venues d'Amérique et d'Asie, se sont parfaitement adaptées ici (floraison étagée de mai à octobre).

We visited during the Confinement when we were allowed to travel 100 kms from home but before any restaurant activity. We took a picnic and were so delighted by this beautiful place. Boardwalks separating the different pools showing water lilies, lotus flowers, all manner of water plants and gorgeous koi fish in a beautiful setting with fountains playing - makes it a delight for children as well as adults. There were lots of shady places to sit, including the picnic spots. We were planning a small water garden at home and enjoyed buying our plants there with helpful advice and instruction from the friendly staff (possibly the owners). Delightful gift shop. All in all, a fabulous day out.

Worth the drive to the end of the island, great views, plentiful parking, small fee to climb the lighthouse. If you have small children or adults who wish to be children north beach access gives rock pools and interesting rock strata. There are cafes, shops but a lovely picnic site should you wish. Sadly the madding crowds are there in abundance.

Lovely gardens, water features, and a botanic graden tucked away in the back. Large pecan tree and great views of some of the original Maisons built in Boredaux. Worth a walk through the gardens.
