About Scotland’s Gardens Scheme Open Garden: Whitburgh House Walled Garden

Pathhead, Midlothian EH37 5SR

This contemporary, stylish one-acre walled garden, 700 feet above sea level, is a lively forward-looking and an unexpected gem. The solidity and a graphic quality of clipped foliage act as a foil for the many perennials, grasses, annuals, fruit and vegetables. A spiral path leads through an acre of white birches. There is also a variety of ponds and fine sculptures spread around 14 acres of policies. Whitburgh garden has featured recently in Gardens Illustrated and other publications.

Directions: From the north - a half mile south of Pathhead on the A68 turn left and follow the SGS signs. From the south - one mile north of Blackshiels on the A68 turn right at the sign to Fala Dam and follow SGS signs. Whitburgh House is about two miles from either turn off and south east of Pathhead.

Other details: Please bring cash as local network connectivity is poor.
