Gardens
The gardens of Dumfries & Galloway are blessed with a climate unusual within Scotland. From the palm fringed west coast, to the secluded walled gardens further east, to the specialist nurseries tending rare and unusual plants to the annual floral outburst in towns and villages, competing for Britain in Bloom.
For a touch of the exotic Logan Botanic Garden will wow you with displays of southern hemisphere plants, Threave Garden's well tended grounds make up one of the most popular visitor attractions in the region, Crichton estate spans 34 landscaped hectares with spectacular views over the Nith estuary. While a huge range of smaller gardens, such as Woodfall with it's 'secret garden' atmosphere, or Glenwhan with it's magnificent sea views and small lochans, ensures Dumfries & Galloway boasts a diversity of plants and garden design rare in Scotland.
For lovers of nature's colourful displays a tour across the breadth of Dumfries & Galloway gives you a wealth of ideas, specimens, advice, inspiration and memories to take back home.
