The gardens at Thornycroft
Visitors to The Garden Bothy are welcome to share and enjoy our ¾ acre landscaped gardens. We are constantly working and developing the garden and can often be found with hoe, secateurs or fork in hand! We have mixed borders with quite a few unusual specimen plants along with a productive fruit and veg plot, greenhouse, poly tunnel and orchard.
The courtyard garden is directly outside The Garden Bothy and is the perfect place to sit and relax after your days exploring. There is a dining table there if you want to eat your evening meal al fresco.
