Traveler reviews
Kylie Ford
★★★★★3 months agoBeautiful and peaceful. Includes a lovely playground for small children. An urban oasis.
Bob & Liz Fiorini
★★★★★a year agoA beautiful garden with gorgeous arbors, olive and fruit trees, a vegetable garden, and a play area for children. We spent many mornings here having our breakfast from The French Bastards (see our review- excellent!). It’s an incredibly peaceful spot in St. Germain. Stop and enjoy. And don’t forget to smell the roses!
