Jardin Potager du Château de Miromesnil

The Château de Miromesnil, where Guy de Maupassant was born in 1850, is located south of Dieppe, in Tourville-sur-Arques. Covering 10 hectares (25 acres), you will see an impressive beech grove, a park overlooked by a two-hundred-year-old Lebanese Cedar and, of course, the quaint vegetable garden. Designed 30 years ago, it combines French and English garden designs for a contrasting and surprising result.

A splendid forest of beeches shelters the chateau of Miromesnil, constructed in the 16th and 17th centuries (see page 6). The
magnifcent vegetable garden, adjacent to the château and enclosed by 17th Century walls, will welcome you to prolongue
your visit. A remarkable garden, winner of the National Society of Horticulture in France, it is a rare example of a traditional
vegetable garden, where flowers, fruits and vegetables are mixed together.
