📌 St Andrews, Fife
★★★
St Andrews Botanic Garden spreads across 18 acres on the southwest side of town. Advertised as a “garden of experiments”, the hilly site offers ponds, woodland, meadows and more obviously constructed ecosystems such as sand dunes, a sloping rock garden and even brownfield sites. On a sunny weekend it could provide a welcome escape from the town’s busy heart.
