Schloss Combourg
23 Rue des PrincesThe winding lanes of the Mont-Saint-Michel countryside lead to one of the most magnificent gardens in twenty-first century France.
The Gardens of La Ballue, with their many “outdoor rooms,” linked by stunningly designed vistas and spaces filled with imaginative topiary, recall the Italian mannerist style and the Yin Yang inspirations of the landscape architects and creators Paul Maymont & François Hebert Stevens. The gardens were laid out over fifty years ago; since then many different creative ideas have been implemented, each of which has added to the gardens’ mystery and power.
The design is dramatic, distinguished by three-dimensional, organic shapes and groups of sculpted allegorical figures in movement. Variety and whimsy characterise the baroque garden, and there are spaces and surprises to discover here in all seasons.
From March 18th to April 30st and from October 1st to November 12th 2023 : Open from 10:00 am till 6:30 pm Thursday to Sunday
From May 1st to September 30th 2023 : Open daily from 10:00 am to 6:30 pm

Gastronomie
In Beauvoir. The restaurant with the Best view to the Mont Saint-Michel. Amazing!
Very good chef who is also the owner. Quality creative dishes.
Medium price range: Around 35/40 € - Lunch menu at 23 €
Service to be improved (Lack of interaction/advises). Nevertheless I recommend because:
1) it's the only place with creative cuisine around
2) Huge potential of improvements
") They seem to take critics into account and they are improving

There are plenty of excellent restaurants in Cancale and I love Chez Victor!
