The woodland walks with Rhododendrons, Azaleas, Camellias, New Zealand tree ferns, Hydrangeas and Fuchsias complement the walled gardens with it’s tender exotics, herbaceous borders and a Bamboo Maze for all to enjoy. The Garden Viewpoint has stunning views over to the islands of Islay and Jura while the pond is a haven for wildlife. PLEASE NOTE: The steps leading up to the viewpoint are very steep and we do not recommended this walk for individuals who are not nimble on their feet.
