Gardens

An oasis of peace and tranquillity

Whatever you look for in gardens, you are sure to find it in this iconic Victorian walled garden with a modern twist  -  inspirational planting schemes designed by Head Gardener, Elliott Forsyth, unusual plants (to see and buy), somewhere beautiful to while away an hour or two, an all seasons plantsman’s paradise,  woodland walks by a sparkling burn leading to the sea. 

Be spoilt for choice! 

Choose from a range of rare and interesting plants, many propagated from the garden itself, and take advantage of the helpful advice of friendly staff.

If plants are not your thing, you will enjoy browsing among the quality giftware and cards stocked in the quirky Snowdrop Gift Shop, or sampling the mouth-watering home baking or a light snack prepared from locally sourced produce in the Snowdrop Tea Room.

Our gardens are open every day throughout the year (except Christmas Day) from 10am to 5pm.  ‘Friends of Cambo’ Season tickets are available too.
