Attadale Gardens

Attadale Gardens is a unique 20 acre garden on the south side of Loch Carron initially established by the Victorians with rhododendrons planted over the hillside. Over the past 40 years, Nicky Macpherson has transformed these gardens with the creation of water gardens with Monet bridges and waterfalls, planted with a painter's eye, a Japanese garden, a huge fern collection with tender ferns housed in a geodesic dome, a sunken fern garden as well as the traditional kitchen garden. The oldest part of the garden is the sunken garden with the giant sundial nearby. There is also a fascinating collection of sculpture scattered through the garden. There is a huge tree collection. A DIY tearoom serves homemade snacks, cakes and biscuits as well as tea, coffee & hot chocolate as well as delicious homemade ice cream . There are photographs on display & reference books about gardening, which provides additional information for visitors. You can also buy plants.
