We are also open from April to October by appointment if you would like to ring us beforehand. Throughout June and July we are open every Sunday with no need for an appointment - but feel free to verify that if you are coming from far away. There are only refreshments available on the first weekend in June but you are welcome to bring your own picnic. We are situated in a very pretty area with three of the most beautiful villages of France within 15 minutes, so the area is well worth a visit. Please note: Annual Membership Cards will not be available for sale at this garden.
This Garden is also open to visit by appointment.
My garden has all sorts of mixed beds, theme beds, raised beds and ponds. Also unusual trees, interesting shrubs, noisy donkeys, sculptures, chickens and a very large sundial. The most recent additions include 100`s of different daylilies and also perennial geraniums.You can wander around or just sit and watch the dragonflies (or a kingfisher if you're lucky) with a cat on your lap, or even go for a stroll through the woods. It is a garden for plant lovers, but also a peaceful place to relax.

We are in the very south of the Corrèze, within about 15 minutes of the small towns of Vayrac, Meyssac & Quatre Routes du Lot. Le Mortier is a hamlet but ours is the only house. It is situated between the villages of Curemonte & Branceilles. If coming from Branceilles, you turn to the right just after the bridge at the bottom of the hill - a sign is there. You then turn to the right again on a corner after about 500 metres and we are on the left after a further 500 metres just as you reach the top of the hill.
