Walled Garden at Floors Castle

Highlight • Castle

This is a gorgeous 4-acre walled garden within the Floors Castle (you will need a ticket, which covers the Castle as well). The garden was relocated to the west of the Castle in 1857, it provided fruit and vegetables for the Castle's kitchen, and flowers for the house - this tradition continues today.

It is a fantastic, colourful and pretty place to spend some time at.

Floors Castle

Highlight • Monument

A truly magnificent castle, and a Category A listed building. It is the home of the Duke of Roxburghe, and, apparently, the largest inhabited castle in Scotland. It was built for the 1st Duke in 1721-26 by William Adam, on the site of a previously existing house (House of Floris), and then extensively redone by W H Playfair in 1837-47 from the Georgian original to the way it is looking now.

This is an unmissable place. It is open to tourists. Please see the Castle's website for more information and tickets: floorscastle.com
