Description:
Newmill is a wildflower and wildlife haven. There are secluded paths that extend 800m by ponds and through woodland along the millrace and the north side of the Lunan Burn. In mid-March there are swathes of wild daffodils and by May, banks of bluebells and primroses. There is a half-acre wildflower meadow covered with cowslips and two colourful gardens to visit. If you are lucky and we have had a warm spring, the first of our 17 species of wild orchid may just be coming into flower.
Directions: Three miles west of Blairgowrie on the south side of the A923 in the direction of Dunkeld. We are 600 metres west of the Kinloch Hotel. Take the track on the left, just after a mobile phone mast and a breeze-block wall.
