The house, surrounded by dry moats crossed by a stone bridge, is visited together with its noted gardens, overlooked by a two-hundred-year-old cedar of Lebanon and bordered by a beech wood typical of the Caux region. A chapel dating from the 15th and 16th centuries, with polychrome statues and old stained glass, completes the estate.
