The lagoon at Château de La Foltière Château de la Foltière is a gem surrounded by 15 unique theme gardens, le Parc Floral de Bretagne. Alain Jouno, your host, offers visitors tours of his beautiful gardens during all seasons of the year. And, there are scheduled expositions and plant sales for those living near Brittany who can take plants home. Monsieur Jouno spent many years designing and planting the gardens to be sure that something is always in bloom and alive with color no matter the season.
Monsieur
Jouno is a kind and pleasant man whose goal is to have happy guests who
will appreciate his enchanted floral oasis as well as his château.
Breakfasts are taken in a large dining room overlooking the lagoon, and
visitors can find a wealth of books, post cards and other information in
the charming little bookshop at the entrance to the property. Contact
M. Jouno from our web site ~ a link to his site
can be found there providing all the details of tours, château stays
and more.
A stay at Château de la Foltière is truly a unique way to explore the beauty of Brittany: beginning with your stay at a delightful château amid incredible gardens. Guests can walk through the gardens at any time on a self-guided tour to enjoy the peace, beauty and tranquility of the entire estate. Several years ago a guest wrote to us to say, "Our host, M. Jouno, welcomed us graciously. . . you could see his pride in the château and his passion for the gardens he'd designed. . . . [the restoration of the château] has been done with meticulous care. Our room, the 'Renoir', was spacious and lovely with warm colors . . . and Louis XVI-styled furniture. Our days began with breakfast in the tea salon, complete with table linens and vases of fresh flowers. The breakfast was excellent. We were struck by the thought and imagination that had gone into the creation of the themed gardens. No matter what you choose to do during the day, it's a delight to wander through the gardens at day's end." [Photos: Copyrighted © Parc Floral Bretagne & Cold Spring Press. All rights reserved.]
