This 18th century building in the Hauts-de-France region of France is actually named Château d’Humeroeuille after the town in which it was built. But its owners and locals recognise it by its nickname: Château Flore, or Plant Castle, because its garden is as famous as the building.
Tim and Krys
The chateau is adorned by its garden of yew hedge topiary. The mill and the forge are surrounded by secular trees. In the estate grounds you will find the tennis court and the outdoor swimming pool. There are 2 hectares of managed gardens with the stream of La Douch running through it, also a small pond which serves as a nursery to young fish that will swim their way to the vezere and dordogne river in their adulthood.
