At La Vrilletterie, the morning arrived wrapped in frost and magic... -4 degrees, but impossibly beautiful. Every tree sparkled, the air felt crisp and quiet, and even the grasses wore a silver coat. And then there was Etoile, the miniature horse, looking completely unbelievable, as if she’d stepped straight out of a winter fairy tale, dusted head to hoof in frost and owning the cold like a true star. ✨❄️

So, so lucky to have this fabulous park on the doorstep of La Vrilletterie. Richelieu park, once the former home of the Cardinal of Richelieu... sadly the château itself is no longer there but with the recent autumn sunshine the grounds have been magnificently shown at their best!
