The gardens of Varengeville

Varengeville has the greatest gardens of Seine-Maritime in store for you; the climate and the nature of the soil are ideal to grow sumptuous gardens.

The Bois des Moutiers is a magical place located in a small valley facing the sea, with its alleyways winding among giant rhododendrons and bright azaleas. Everything lives in harmony here; it has all been carefully thought out: the Arts and Crafts house, unique in France, designed by Sir Edwin Luytens at the age of 25, the 7 levels of garden designed by Gertude Jekyll and the park leading gently down to the sea...

Linger on a bench and enjoy the serenity of the place to the full...

Before leaving for another garden and another atmosphere: the Shamrock garden and its impressive collection of hydrangeas, the largest one in the world... Covering 2 hectares (4 acres), 1,400 different varieties, among which a large number is unique in Europe as they mostly come from Japan.

Finally, the Valleuse de Vasterival holds a veritable gem, the Vasterival garden, planted in 1957 by Princess Sturdza, who made it an exceptionally rich botanical park, with more than 10,000 species. This garden has the particularity of being beautiful "all year round and from every angle". Indeed, the harmonies of colours, lights and perspectives have been well thought out... This garden is enchanting and delights beginners as well as experts.
