Finally, stop at the Gardens of Eyrignac. The Eyrignac Manor is a 17th century manor house in Salignac-Eyvigues, surrounded by a recreated 18th century Italian Renaissance garden and an elaborate topiary garden. The house is located on top of a hill, with water coming from seven springs. Only a pavilion, fountains and basins remain from the original 18th century garden. In the 1960s, the new owner, Giles Sermadiras de Cuzols de Lile, created the new garden, which features topiary sculptures, vistas, fountains, statues, and an alley of vases. The garden is listed by the Committee of Parks and Gardens of the French Ministry of Culture as one of the Notable Gardens of France.
