    It was the second time we've been here. The first time was in late summer. It was hot and dry and understandably the flowers weren't at their best, so it was truly lovely to return in the spring and see all the flowers in their first bloom. As always the route through the gardens is well thought out and sign-posted. It's a gentle amble of around 2 - 2.5 hours with gorgeous scenery, beautiful flowers and alternating light and shade. The various sections are each as delightful as the last. The staff are always friendly and helpful and the little garden shop is well stocked with the beautiful plants and bushes you'll have seen on your tour. We purchased a couple of soft-drinks on our way out as we had built up a thirst in the warmth, and they weren't expensive. If I were to have one complaint, it's that they don't name any of the flowers. My MIL spent an ungodly amount of time on her phone trying to identify various species of flower and bush. But I would definitely recommend this as a lovely gentle day out if you like plants and flowers.

    Beautiful gardens I went in the fall and many plants were past bloom- but still had many beautiful things to see. Bamboo maze was fun

    A heaven of peace! We spent a lovely sunny afternoon at les Jardins des Martels. Beautifully designed gardens with whispering fountains, lush lawns, rose borders and many different plants and shrubs, weeping willows and big trees near ponds and bridges ...simple pleasure for all the senses! I loved the jasmin trellis, the water lilies with the little frogs and orchids in the greenhouse. Secret shady corners offer resting places before you go down to see the cows and donkey and the hens.Before we left we enjoyed a cup of tea on the wooden terrace overlooking the garden.

    5 / 5 Reviews posted by francescamatty (London, United Kingdom) on 16/07/2019

    Considered as one of the most beautiful gardens in France, these gardens are a MUST for the "gardens hunters". Children will love it as there is also a little farms with very pretty animals.
