Eyrignac and its Gardens

The Art of the « Jardin à la française »

Do you want to walk inbetween natural and historical heritage ? Come and explore the 10 hectares of Gardens at the Manoir d’Eyrignac, «  Les Jardins d’Eyrignac », classed « Remarkable Gardens ». Situated just 20 minutes from Sarlat-La-Canéda, these gardens are a must-see place whilst you are visiting the Périgord Noir !

One of the most

beautiful gardens in the whole of the Périgord

As a family or a couple, come and wander in the green alleyways of the Gardens of the Eyrignac Manor and discover one of the « Most Beautiful Gardens of France ». Thanks to the work of Gilles Sermadiras in the 60’s, you will be able to stroll through the gardens just as they were back in the 18th century!


Roam peacefully in

the green universe of Eyrignac

Conventionnaly start by the trimmed boxwood, roam in the alleyways, take time to sit on a bench to make the most of the peacefulness of this place. Further steps punctuate this green path, discover green spaces of Italian aspirations.

Walk around the Manoir d’Artaban, between the bedding « à la française » and the 300 topiary scupltures, to admire the detailed work of the 6 gardeners, that make this place as beautiful as it is ! A true piece of art !

a bucolic moment

The last part of the walk in these gardens brings another insight into what a garden can be, with its different flavours : the orchard and the flower garden try and preserve the peaceful atmosphere which lays here.

There are also vegetable gardens, insect houses, grape vines…

Are you coming here as a family? Bring your garden apprentices to the flower garden and to the vegetable garden, to let them discover the diversity of the plant world ! The owners come here to get their vegetable supplies!

The White Garden

A good place to finish your visit is the White Garden, here you will be able to admire the 500 white rosebushes, in flower from may right until the first frost.

Take your time to contemplate the 5 pools and frog fountains made out of bronze, whilst sitting under the pergola. Here you can take a minute to admire the sunset over the magnificent Dordogne valley. And finish your tour by visiting the gift shop and take home some souvenirs.

Happy picnics

In the summertime, the Jardins d’Eyrignac take another toll, one of parties and sharing. « The Happy Picnics» or «Picnics dressed in white» are held all summer long.

Everyone dresses in white and eats their picnic in the grass of the white rose garden, to the rythm and sound of the music and animations. You can also enjoy the firework display which lights up the whole of the Périgord sky to finish the evening.
