About Scotland’s Gardens Scheme Open Garden: Craig Cottage
CRAIG COTTAGE
Blebo Craigs KY15 5UQ
David & Elizabeth Wallace
Situated a few hundred yards from South Flisk is the charming Craig Cottage - a total contrast to South Flisk but the two gardens complement each other perfectly. Most of the garden has been planted since the owners moved here in 2014, although the small area of shrubs close to the cottage is original. Half of the lawn is now 'meadow' with a recent planting of fritillaries. The rest of the garden has borders containing a range of interesting plants, a rose screen, rhododendrons, azaleas, and specimen and fruit trees. Below that there is a productive vegetable plot. In addition, a recently extended rockery leads to an area of paths between thymes, camomile and other ground cover plants broken up by hedges and trees to provide windbreaks. The garden has fine examples of dry stone walling, most of which is the restoration/rebuilding of the original.
Directions: A short walk from South Flisk - see separate listing.
Other details: Opening in conjunction with South Flisk at which parking is available for visiting both gardens. Separate admission charges apply for each garden.
