Crathes Castle Garden 


The parkland was first laid out in 1702 but at the beginning of the 20th century landscape gardeners William Robinson and Gertrude Jekyll gave it a new look. The neatly trimmed yew hedge (18th century) attracts a lot of attention, not to mention the magnolias, oleander and rose garden.
Crathes garden is especially worth a visit in the summer. It includes eight gardens, each with a different theme, as well as trough gardens and greenhouses.
