Brechin’s Walled Garden is considered by many to be one of the finest, well-maintained private gardens in Scotland. It is now open to the public at select times each year so that others can enjoy all the beauty it has to offer. From its uniquely-curving walls and wide gravelled paths to its secluded smaller paths and treasured ornaments, there is something to behold for everyone in addition to the stunning blend of ancient and modern plantings.
