The friendly goats are a charming surprise, and the well-maintained paths with shaded benches are appreciated. Some note the steep terrain and advise checking opening hours to avoid closures.
"Wonderful gardens perched on the hill above Roquebrun.
Note to self - check opening times and don't turn up when they're closed for lunch🙄 but didn't have too long to wait!
Fantastic array of zones of planting, would definitely visit earlier in the season when more of the plants would be in bloom.
The views are also amazing!
Certainly wasn't expecting the goats!"

"Very beautiful botanical garden with lots of plants, gives good overview of mediterranean flora. Rocky terrain allows good setup. Nice pathways with benches here and there in shade which was much appreciated due to extremely hot weather. Nice views to the river, bridge, town and tower."

"Beautiful swimming area with rapids and rock pools, with a gorgeous village as backdrop. Safe and fun for kids. No eating facilities but village just across the bridge, an easy walk. Parking 3 euro per day."
