Bolfracks' gardens are truly spectacular. They are an oasis of peace and colour with an impressive collection of rare and unusual plants, all with excellent views over the Tay valley.
The ornamental garden originated from the mid-18th century. Most of what can be seen today originates from the 1970s and is the work of the late Mr J Douglas Hutchison.
The stream garden was planned and constructed by Ian Lawrie of Dundee in 1928 along the course of the Bolfracks Burn. It was restored and replanted between 1983 and 1985. A collection of rare and unusual plants, including a superb collection of rhododendrons, azaleas, acers, old fashioned roses and an array of herbaceous perennials.
The beautiful gardens complement a wonderful experience not to mention your own private tennis court.
