When we acquired L’Orangerie in 2007,   the garden resembled a mediterranean jungle.   The system of  garden walkways which must have once provided an enchanting evening stroll for guests of the Grand Hotel had all but disappeared, and the few  that remained  were unpaved  and periodically smothered with weeds. As we surveyed our beautiful exotic wilderness, it was obvious that the first act of restoration must be the re-installation of a system of pathways which would divide the main part garden into different zones providing a means of communication/ supply and eventually the route for an early morning or evening perambulation.  Take a look at some of the pathways we created.
