Kirklands House and Garden
Welcome
Peter and Gill
welcome you to Kirklands. Our beautiful home,
built in 1832, is set in 2 acres of stunning gardens and 20 acres of
important naturally regenerating woodland. Our bed and breakfast
accommodation may particularly appeal to garden lovers but for
whatever reason you visit us you can be sure of a warm and friendly
reception. We offer Bed and Breakfast accommodation - one
double/family room with en-suite bathroom overlooking the front of the house with views to the Ochils
and
one twin/double room with en-suite bathroom
overlooking the courtyard and the rockery with the woodland
beyond.
Our 2 acre garden has been
created by us since 1977 and includes a walled garden,
herbaceous borders, rockery garden, woodland garden, woodland walk, bog
garden and bluebell walk. We have tried to ensure that we have
something of interest in every month of the year.
Over the last few years we have been collecting
seeds and dividing the larger plants in the garden. Initially we
sold them to visitors on our open days when the garden was opened
for charity under the Scotland Garden Scheme.
We now offer plants for
sale throughout the year to garden visitors. Our
stock changes regularly and all plants are raised in the garden.
We are the perfect base to tour Scotland,
secluded, yet central for sightseeing in Edinburgh, Stirling,
Perth and Glasgow. For golfers we are perfectly located between St
Andrews
and Gleneagles. For walkers, we have the Ochils close by. For
cyclists the Millennium Cycleway
and the Blairadam Forest Trails. For those interested in history we
have the beautifully preserved village of Culross,
Castle Campbell,
the Wallace Monument (Brave Heart) and the town of Dunfermline
where the Kings and Queens of Scotland were crowned and the
philanthropist Andrew Carnegie was born - all within a short
distance. Within a few miles we have the Knockhill Race Track
for the motor bike and car enthusiasts.
