Beautiful landscapes within the Castle Grounds

Considered by many to be the highlight of their visit…

The Gardens at Floors Castle combine one of the finest Victorian Kitchen Gardens in a spectacular Walled Garden with a formal Millennium Garden which features a French-style parterre and a charming summer house known as “Queen’s House” after Queen Victoria visited for tea here in 1867. The 4 acre Walled Garden is a unique showpiece of seasonal colour and interest.

Enjoy the frenzy of colour in the breath-taking herbaceous borders, explore the glasshouses bursting with soft fruit and exotic blooms. Discover a multitude of wonderful cut flowers, fruit and vegetables are grown within the ancient walls making our garden as beautiful as it is productive.

The wider Estate Grounds are ideal for walking and enjoying the beautiful countryside, the perfect way to work off your Terrace Café Lunch!

We are dog friendly!
Dogs on leads are very welcome throughout the Grounds, Gardens and both our Giftshops (no dogs inside the Castle please).
There is outdoor seating and water points at the Terrace Café and dogs are welcome inside our Courtyard Café so they needn’t be shut in the car.

Millennium Garden

This lovely formal garden with its French-style parterre was created to commemorate the new millennium and features the intertwining initials of the 10th Duke and Duchess of Roxburghe. The roman numerals MM in box hedging signify the year 2000 and flank the ducal coronet. On the upper terrace are varieties of heritage apple trees trained up circular frames.

Star Plantation

This beautiful woodland garden between Floors Castle and the Millennium Garden is a joy to explore with its lovely mix of mature hardwood trees, open glades and woodland shrubs. The star plantation takes its name from the grass avenues radiating outwards from a central lime tree which is a delightful wrought iron seat.

Walled Garden

Relocated to the West of the Castle in 1857, the Walled Gardens historically grew fruit and vegetables for the Castle Kitchen and to provide flowers for the House.
