Description:
The house itself was built in 1887, but when we moved in to the house in 2010, the garden was a jungle. We removed 12 trees, many of them self-seed trees, discovered a sunken garden and had to fill it with 20 tonnes of topsoil. Therefore, starting from this blank canvas and a love of gardening, we divided the garden into rooms to add interest, including a parterre, herbaceous border, patio and lots of different seating areas, including one by Nigel Bialy, to take advantage of the sun at various times of the day.
Directions: On the main road as you come into Kilbirnie from Lochwinnoch. Parking is just off the main road at the side of the house on Dipple Road, the garden is on a corner. Alternate parking can be found past the house, through the traffic lights and left at the roundabout. Public bus service runs to the Cross in Kilbirnie, with a five-minute walk from there to the garden. For details go to Traveline Scotland https://www.travelinescotland.com
