RHS Dumfries House Estate
Dumfries House Estate consists of 242ha (600 acres) of gardens and designed landscape set within an organically managed 566ha (1,400-acre) farm.
The main 2ha (5-acre) Queen Elizabeth II Walled Garden has been restored as part of His Royal Highness’s vision for Dumfries House and Estate to be a focal point for Heritage-led regeneration. The opening of the walled garden in 2014 by Her Majesty The Queen followed two years of renovation and replanting. It remains one of the most ambitious and significant gardening renovation projects carried out in Scotland.
