Description:
Blackdykes Garden was created 30 years ago from open fields. The three-acre site has extensive views southwards towards the Lammermuirs. The formal heart of the garden consists of a series of rooms hemmed in by stone walls and clipped hedges of yew, beech and hornbeam. These are planted with roses, irises, climbers and perennials. Surrounding the formal garden is a network of mown grass paths and avenues, carpeted with fritillaries, narcissi, muscari and cowslips. The informal garden is planted with ornamental cherries, magnolias, species roses and topiary.
Directions: Leave North Berwick on the A198 towards Dunbar. Half a mile after Tesco, turn right at Rhodes Holdings. After one mile you will arrive at Blackdykes.
