Really nice place You can only visit it in September though, that being said we were allowed to walk around and it looked gorgeous
(Translated by Google) Really very beautiful place, the only drawback is that it can only be visited from the inside during heritage days. (Original) Vraiment très beau lieu, seul défaut elle n’est visitable de l’intérieur que pendant les journées du patrimoine.
(Translated by Google) Magnificent property, only the exteriors were accessible (Original) Magnifique propriété, seuls les extérieurs étaient accessibles
(Translated by Google) Very pretty house. A place steeped in history where we can stop ourselves from thinking about the atrocities committed on this earth. The various bottles of rum available were a nice gesture. Likewise, the small bananas in the fruit basket made available to visitors in the kitchen were particularly good and tasty. The waterfall at the bottom of the garden was particularly refreshing and pleasant to bathe in. (Original) Très jolie demeure. Un lieu chargé d’histoire où nous pouvons nous empêcher de penser aux atrocités commises sur cette terre. Les différentes bouteilles de rhum a disposition étaient un geste appréciable. De même, les petites bananes de la corbeille de fruit mises à disposition aux visiteurs dans la cuisine étaient particulièrement bonnes et goûteuses. La cascade au fond du jardin était particulièrement rafraîchissante et agréable pour s’y baigner.
(Translated by Google) Magnificent home located in the north of the island. Historically a Boisjourdain residence, it was acquired by the Pecoul family who only spent a brief period in Martinique. He is a manager who was on site in the 18th century to ensure the management of land assets and slaves. The main residence is splendid and beautifully decorated. It provides perspective and insight into agnosia. Discovered only for European Heritage Days, we have the opportunity to listen with passion to the comments of Florent Plasse on the history of the place and its inhabitants. The activity of the house focuses on banana cultivation, it was formerly a rum distillery (sugar cane cultivation and elixir production). Thank you to the Clément Foundation for opening the “doors of history” for our greatest pleasure and culture! (Original) Magnifique habitation située au Nord de l’île. Historiquement habitation Boisjourdain, elle a été acquise par la famille Pecoul qui ne fut qu’un brève passage en Martinique. C’est un gérant qui était sur place au XVIII eme siècle pour assurer les gestion du patrimoine foncier et des esclaves. La demeure principale est splendide joliment décorée. Elle offre une perspective et une vue l’agnosie. Découverte uniquement pour les journées européennes du patrimoine, nous avons l’occasion d’écouter avec passion les commentaires de Florent Plasse sur l’histoire des lieux et ses habitants. L’activité de l’habitation se concentre sur la culture de la banane, elle était autrefois une distillerie de rhum (culture de la canne à sucre et production de l’élixir). Merci à la fondation Clément de nous ouvrir les « portes de l’histoire » pour notre plus grand plaisir et la culture !
(Translated by Google) Very beautiful garden, closed house, but which makes you want to visit. (Original) Très beau jardin, habitation fermée, mais qui donne envie de visiter .
(Translated by Google) What a magical place, the visit allows you to travel back in time. The place and the gardens are beautifully maintained and the house is one of the prettiest I have visited on the island. (Original) Quel endroit magique, la visite permet de voyager dans le temps. Le lieu et les jardins sont magnifiquement entretenus et la maison est une des plus jolies que j’ai visitée sur l’île.
(Translated by Google) Great place where you feel serene. Very pretty park. To visit during heritage day because not open to the public. (Original) Super lieu où l on se sent serein. Très joli parc. A visiter lors de la journée du patrimoine car pas ouvert au public.
