We were here on Saturday,the colours were stunning! The butterfly is a Scarce Swallow-tail.  Click on pics for better view.

Went there a few years ago- I was really pleased to see how natural it looked, I'd expected it to be more formal. We went in august, but it was raining, so didn't get very good pics- yours are lovely. Thanks for the memories!

Thanks for posting the photos :D I went there about 12 years ago, glad to see it's still as gobsmacking as I remembered!

Cheers,
Rob ;)

Beautifull pictures. I long to go there, maybe next year.

thanks for sharing Em
the butterfly is very beautiful but the last image is my favourite......i'm rather fond of nasturiums :)

I'm hoping to get there... has anybody else been to Villandry? Apart from the fact you couldn't get inside the large squares it was stunning, pre digital camera and the scanner is playing up!
:(

Mine too,GW. it reminded me of a river strangely enough,the light made the nasturtiums look almost translucent. Hope to go back in June next year to see the roses in bloom.
Thanks for your kind comments,peeps.

Lovely pictures, it is on my list of place that I would love to visit, hope that it wasn't too crowded

Not crowded in October Flossie,but I understand it is more so in the Summer. I hate crowded places with a passion, so I'd go early morning in the busy times.

Emaggie. Great pics, thank you for sharing them with us.
