Geilston Garden |
||||||||||
|
Set around Geilston House (not open to the public), which is thought to date from the late 17th century, this enchanting garden was first opened to visitors in 1998.
It has many interesting features, including a walled garden with glasshouses, a heather garden, herbaceous and mixed shrub borders and a spectacular Sequoiadendron giganteum. Paths through a wooded glen criss-cross the Geilston Burn, leading to a fruit and vegetable garden.
