Title

Galloway House Gardens

Description

These historic gardens stand in a unique position on the shores of the Solway Firth and benefit from an unusually mild climate owing to the Gulf Stream. There are Victorian glasshouses in the beautiful walled garden, which in its day produced award winning grapes and apples. Enjoy the walk down to Rigg Bay, a sheltered beach bordering the gardens, and then explore the heights of Cruggleton Cliffs and the ruin of Cruggleton Castle.
