The grounds of Dalswinton are beautiful and we encourage walkers to come and visit anytime.

The Dalswinton House Gardens are private and are open to the public once a year in May, and the money raised goes to the Kirkmahoe Parish Church and the Scotland’s Gardens Scheme.

If you wish to donate throughout the year, the honesty boxes in our car parks also go to the Scotland’s Gardens Scheme.

Please use the car parks behind the Barony Church or beside the Dalswinton Village Hall. The car park beside the Loch is for disabled people and local Dalswinton community only. When you visit please read the signs in the car park and respect the countryside.

The landscape around Dalswinton House lends itself to creating a garden with many different features. We have formality around the house, rhododendrons and azaleas along the drive and the Loch provides a wonderful water scape. Each area needs a different approach. We hope you enjoy your visit to Dalswinton.
