Threave Garden and Estate - NTS
Threave is a series of spectacular gardens created over the years by students of the Trust's School of Heritage Gardening.
You can enjoy the delights of these gardens in every season - from spring flowers, through summer blooms, autumn colours and winter frosts. The walled garden and glasshouses display succulent fruit and vegetables - sometimes our produce is available for visitors to buy, but mostly it is used in the Terrace Cafe to create delicious home cooked meals, soups, snacks and baking.How to find us
