Edzell Castle Garden

A closer look is worthwhile not just for the castle's fortifications but also for the marvelous 16th century Renaissance gardens that were laid out in 1604 by Sir David Lindsay. In the summer a colorful display of blooms in the colors of the Lindsay coat-of-arms decorates the red enclosure walls. A Neo-gothic summer house and an attractive ruined 17th century bath house are among the delights of the garden.
