📌 Inverleith, City of Edinburgh
★★★★
🛠️ Glasshouses closed for long term restoration work until approx. 2028. Rest of garden open (checked August 2024)
If you live close to the Royal Botanic Garden you’ll already know that you’re fortunate to call one of Edinburgh‘s most beautiful and green suburbs home. Amongst the several generous areas of open space are more than 70 landscaped acres within easy walking distance of Edinburgh New Town: beautiful woodland, rock garden, Chinese hillside, ponds and the magnificent Victorian Palm Houses (currently closed as part of a massive conservation project) are just a few of the highlights. Obviously the gardens show their best colours during the warmer months, but they’re worth a visit at any time of year.
