The recent renovation of the Walled Garden has restored to the Estate a vitality long since forgotten. A fascinating collection of mature shrubs and plants are now well established and the original splendour of the Walled Garden is becoming evident once again.
The gardens at Dunskey have a friendly atmosphere and charm all of their own. Visitors can explore the walled garden using the wide gravel paths and broad lawns to enjoy a garden full of plants both familiar and unusual. The sloping site means that there are a number of different micro- climates throughout the garden and these are reflected within the planting. The jewel in the walled garden has to be the range of 19 century glasshouses. These are used for growing Peaches, Nectarines, Grapes and exotics such as the tropical looking Passiflora antioquiensis.
The developing woodland gardens lead off from the walled garden and include some lovely loch views. The woodland gardens are probably at their best in late spring and early summer when the Rhodedendrons are matched by carpets of Bluebells and other wild flowers.
