In order to get in touch with her rustic side, Marie Antoinette had a provincial French hamlet built near her chateau for her and her mates. As with the palace and the gardens, the hamlet’s beauty was overwhelming, but in a different way. Walking through the hamlet was like walking into a story book (think Belle’s village from Beauty and the Beast!).
We were surrounded by autumn shades, flowers, streams, ponds, swans and a vineyard. Each house in the hamlet had a veggie garden growing pumpkins and leeks as well as balconies lined with blue ceramic pots overflowing with dainty red flowers. If Monique could transport it to Melbourne, she would!
