We visited here on a whim having stopped at Guthrie church to show our young boys where we’d been married. What a beautiful garden, clearly a real labour of love. We visited on a sunny day in July so the garden was in bloom and just open after lockdown. The garden has great variety from the flower garden, to the woodland and meadow. Look forward to returning and would highly recommend visiting if you are in the area.

Lovely circular walk around the Loch with a nice view of the water as well as a nice woodland path with wildlife nearby. I would definitely recommend a visit here it is out of the way slightly but so nice to see!

This is a superb place for a family day out as there is so much to do. There is a farm with animals such as chickens and rabbits, a lovely walk round the lochs and a ta room with very tasty home made cakes.
