Secret garden an undiscovered French garden near the Champagne Trail Have an unforgettable couple’s break learning the secrets of the extraordinary floral oasis created by French artist Françoise Radet-Mannerkorpi – then relaxing over a glass of local champagne. Overlooked by the 13th-century church in the pretty village of Brécy, the Clos Joli is perfect for a complete change of scene. Here you can meet up with a septuagenarian Surrealist painter and photographer who began gardening on a Finnish island and loves sharing her passion for her greatest artistic project –one to which she has devoted 20 years.
