The current facade of the castle dates from 1823, following work by Emmanuel Harrington to give it a Palladian style.

This façade eliminates the 15th-century dwelling, to which a west wing was added in the 1760s.

Completely restored, the structure of the terraced gardens is of rare importance for the period in which it was built in the 17th century.

The vegetable patches have been under restoration since 2018. The decision was taken to restore the beds gradually.

The first two beds on the third terrace were restored in 2018, followed by two more in 2019.

In 2020, the number of beds on the third terrace will be increased to six.

The water irrigation system for this terrace was installed and the first espaliered fruit trees were planted along the wall between the second and third terraces.

In 2023, the last two flowerbeds on the third terrace and the central esplanade were restored.

This basin was gradually ruined by time and the contours collapsed. Very minimal remains of the wall were still visible before it was restored.

In the centre of the basin, there was a pedestal with a statue of the sea god Neptune perched on a dolphin, from which a jet of water flowed.

Here again, symbolism played a part in the choice of this statue: Neptune, the god of the sea, was chosen for this basin because it was fed by the Odet, itself subject to the influence of the sea at high tide. At high tide, the sea invaded the Odet and then, via a canal, this salt water entered the basin where it was held back by a bung until the next tide. Today, it fills up again during the tides when the flap gate is opened.

The orangery was built in the second half of the 18th century by Monseigneur de Farcy de Cuillé, following on from a first building perpendicular to it, traces of which can still be seen in the walls. The "double mirror" pool in front is the only one left after the French Revolution.

The Arboretum was gradually built up in the 19th century, first by Hermine de Kerret and then by her daughter Geneviève de La Sablière.

Brittany played an important role in the development of arboretums, as the region's oceanic climate allowed many exotic varieties to adapt well.

A central feature of the gardens, the Dolphin Basin , destroyed during the French Revolution, was restored in 2005.

A Dauphin once sat at its centre, with a jet of water some 5m high.

The canal was built in the 17th century for both decorative and functional purposes.

Decorative, thanks to its great canopy of greenery 270 metres long, 12 metres wide on one side and 4 metres wide on the other. This architecture creates an accelerated perspective that makes it seem even longer. Functional, because it was supplied with water by a stream, which fed the pools on the terraces by gravity.

The Neptune wood walk takes you for a 1.3km stroll along the stream to the fountain, then on to the old gatehouse and back along the dyke, where you can walk alongside the Odet and enjoy a unique view of the reclamation area, a polder built from 1839 by Charles de Kerret.

To access the gardens, you will have the opportunity to walk along the estate's avenues. You'll first take the Kerbabic avenue, with its old oak trees planted in the 18th century by Monseigneur de Farcy, then head down the main avenue, which was replanted with lime trees after the 1987 hurricane.
