LA DIGUE
La Digue, an island of the Seychelles in the Indian Ocean with beaches of breath taking beauty, surreally shaped granite rocks and a village community spread between the sea and the forested slope of the 333 m high island mountain. Inside the island shine colors of incredible intensity, fabulous birds fly through lush greenery, taste fragrant flowers and fruits. In a large tropical garden in the heart of this island we have spread beautiful holiday homes. A five-minute bike ride will take you to the next beach or to the small centre at the jetty, even the famous Grand Anse bay is not far…
HOME
IN THE GARDEN
Star fruit and guava, mangoes and limes, grapefruit and calamondin orange, tangerine, also lemongrass and cinnamon, vanilla, cashew, coffee and cocoa grow in the garden. Avocado we planted, coconuts and bananas, aloe vera and turmeric, hibiscus, orchids, frangipani… and much more. Even the coco de mer can now be found at Bois d’Amour. Fruit bats are flying above the houses, fairy terns and white tropic birds are circling, Madagascar weavers and nectar birds are chirping next to chattering myna birds and bulbuls. Oh, and there are wild chickens all over the island, so they do drop by from time to time.
