Monet's Garden, Mirbeau Inn and Spa, Pinehills, Plymouth, Massachusetts, USA

The newly opened Mirbeau Inn and Spa in the Pinehills community has planted what will one day become a Monet inspired garden in its courtyard. Granted, the plantings need a few years of growth to appear like Monet's actual garden in Giverny, France but, the green bridge is in place and time and tending will take care of the rest.

Their bistro is a great place for lunch - indoors or outdoors on the patio.  They even served a vegan burger accompanied by chickpea flour french fries! And no, I don't know how one makes fries out of chickpea flour but they sure tasted good.


Someone suggested to me that "mirbeau" loosely translates as reflected beauty. This view of the pond just over the railing illustrates that idea very well.
