Full Description

Rowallane Garden is a gorgeous place to slow down and let the wee ones explore. This National Trust garden is full of winding paths, colourful planting, mature trees and woodland corners that feel a world away from a busy day.

The natural adventure play area adds a brilliant bit of fun, with opportunities for climbing and balancing, while the gardens are perfect for a colour hunt or spotting butterflies and birds. Take your time wandering the paths, and let the children discover what is around the next bend. It is a lovely mix of outdoor play and a peaceful family walk.

This is a lovely choice when you want a day out with something a little different for the wee ones. Take your time, follow their interests and enjoy making memories together.

There's a natural play area for children to let off steam, balance bikes to borrow, and baby changing facilities on site, which makes a garden wander with little ones much easier.

What You'll Find

Rowallane Garden is a lovely National Trust garden for families who enjoy a slower outdoor adventure. There are winding paths, woodland areas, open lawns and lots of little corners to discover, giving wee adventurers plenty of room to explore while grown-ups enjoy the gardens around them.
