The landscaped park of Serrant Castle offers a bucolic walk through a preserved environment since its creation in the 18th century. From 1780, Count Walsh de Serrant removed the old French gardens to establish a large winding body of water dotted with islands, like a wild river. Paths that meander between woods and open meadows are drawn and invite contemplation. Large views towards the castle facades are created between the groves of trees. Exotic species are planted around the castle to enjoy lush nature in any season. In the 19th century, Théobald Walsh de Serrant and his wife Sophie Legrand expanded the park to include the Brelaudière pond, a vast body of water used as a fish reserve. The winding paths are extended by several kilometers to ensure a bucolic walk between woods and forests. Between 1894, the Duke and Duchess of La Trémoïlle preserved the landscape layout of the Walsh Park but modified the surroundings of the castle by creating a regular garden bordered by a stone balustrade. A large aisle surrounded by double rows of chestnut trees highlights the perspective of the main facade. Today, it is possible to take the Duchess’s walk that leads the visitor from the castle to the Brelaudière pond, and thus admire the design of a landscaped park where nature gives the illusion of being spontaneous. The entire landscape park has been a listed site since 1973, and the Brelaudière pond is a protected nesting area for many species of migratory birds.
