Due to the prolonged drought in the south of France the garden has suffered in recent years. We have recently had extensive gardening undertaken to remove some dead shrubs and trees. We are moving to a more sustainable garden that is less reliant on watering. Also much of the invasive bamboo has been removed and beds have been replanted. To reflect this we have not increased our rental.
