Le Clos du Peyronnet - Wisteria 3


Another pergola at the beautiful Clos du Peyronnet. This glorious garden is in Garavan and just 200 metres from the Italian frontier.

A cup of tea with William, sitting at this table is heaven - looking (to the left of this photo) over beautiful pools (plus ducks) and beyond to the Mediterranean - it is absolutely my favourite Menton garden.

This wisteria - click to enlarge the smaller photo - is called 'Black Dragon.'

This is the last photo of the Clos for the moment but we will return for a series on this beautiful garden later in the year. Tomorrow, the last in the 'wisteria' series, and this time at Place des Herbes in the Old Town.

  10. I really like these pilars made of stones, piled up, with this wall made the same way.
    It's a "delicious" garden, with great atmosphere.
    As Olivier said, certainly one of the most pleasant place to have dinner, at the beginning of the summer nights.
