In the shade of ancient oaks

The Candé estate was set up around 1860 by Santiago Drake del Castillo, a rich Parisian aristocrat. The estate, comprising an area of 250 hectares, is classified as an Espace Naturel Sensible (environmentally fragile area) owing to its rich flora and fauna. This status distinguishes those sites that are both protected in terms of the environment and open to the public. We invite you to explore the property.
