Inverewe Garden
Poolewe, Wester Ross
About the property
One of the world's greatest gardens, Inverewe sprang from the realisation of one man's determination and his taste for the exotic. For many, visiting this beautiful, tranquil place is an unforgettable experience. Look out for the new Wildlife Hide, open from 6th April. The Garden is built on a craggy hillside with a majestic setting on the water’s edge of Loch Ewe.
The property has a famous Walled Garden with plants from around the world including Chinese rhododendrons, Tasmanian eucalypts and New Zealand daisy bushes as well as Woodland containing a canopy of Scots Pine trees - a unique feature - which are underplanted with many unusual woodland plants such as Meconopsis and Primula and including our own Primula Inverewe.
Extensive views from both low and high vantage points of Loch Ewe, the surrounding Highlands and out to sea offering wind sheltered vistas.
