Description:
Redcroft is a mature walled garden surrounding an attractive Arts and Crafts house. It is a hidden haven off a busy road with a variety of different features and habitats: old shrubberies and trees, an orchard, a rockery, a pond, and an extensive lawn with contrasting longer grass. It is well maintained with clipped shrubs and some cloud pruning. June is very colourful with many flowering shrubs and wall plants, and there should be a good display in the greenhouse. Children and buggies are very welcome, dogs on leads too. We hope older children will enjoy our treehouse.
Directions: Murrayfield Road runs north from Corstorphine Road to Ravelston Dykes. There is easy free parking. Buses 12, 26, and 31, get off at Murrayfield Stadium. Bus 38 goes along Murrayfield Road.
Other details: This is a change from our usual two day afternoon openings in mid May, and is more of an early evening gathering with drinks and light refreshments. Plant sale, music in the garden: No Strings Attached Wind Band will play. Mostly wheelchair accessible.
