What visitors say
I spotted an ad for this gem in a nearby hote,l and we decided to check it out. There is a parking lot just adjacent to the cafe where one goes to pay for the ticket. The admission fee was £7 per person. Once paid, you exit the building, and walk through a gate, along a macadam path to get to the entrance of the walled garden. The interior is spectacular and has some magnificent views of the mountains in the background. In addition to the walled garden, there are several walking paths with information stands that would be very entertaining to children. There is certainly quite a bit to see here, but we only spent time in the walled garden with a brief walk around part of the grounds nearest the river. A lovely day out. There are toilets in the back of the cafe should you need them. Also, the cafe had some delectable delights on display and there are outside tables (as well as inside) where you could enjoy a treat if you were so inclined.

Beautiful walled garden, woodland walk and duck ponds. We had such a relaxing time visiting here. The lady in the shop is also worth a shout out to - she was so friendly and informative.

Amazing! One of the best botanical gardens I have visited in the UK. The grounds are very well maintained - the walled garden was very nice. Some great views and activities on site. £8 entry fee - very reasonable. Just a short drive from the centre of Peebles. Would return 🙏
