Gassin · LE GOLFE / DISCOVER
Below Gassin village, a small gate leads to a different scale of landscape. L’Hardy-Denonain garden unfolds between plants and stone terraces. Our idea: leave the sweeping views for a while and look closely at the leaves, walls and paths of the garden.
THE LE GOLFE VIEW
“A SECRET GARDEN AMONG THE TERRACES.”
FIND YOUR RHYTHM
01
Several hundred Provençal and Mediterranean species fill the garden created by Germaine L’Hardy-Denonain. Four terraces set the pace of discovery. Our advice: choose a few plants to look at closely rather than turning your break into a botanical inventory.
02
Walk into the village from authorised parking and find the garden gate on Place deï Barri. The approach has steps and paths connect different terrace levels. The tourism reference marks the garden area; it is neither a vehicle entrance nor a certified accessible route.
03
This private garden offers free seasonal visits. Cultural sources indicate Thursday closure; confirm dates and hours with the garden or tourist office, especially outside the main season. Respect a closed gate and make the village your alternative outing.
BEYOND THE FIRST LOOK
Our suggestion: combine the garden with Porte des Sarrazins and Notre-Dame-de-l’Assomption church. Alternate plants and heritage without imposing a timed circuit. Ask for advice before making the garden your main stop if stairs are difficult for someone in your group.
