Arduaine Gardens Spring Festival

Friday, April 9th, 2010

Arduaine Gardens, the National Trust garden just over 5 miles form Melfort Village, is organising a Spring Festival from 16-18 April 2010.  Tickets are available for a special dinner at the Loch Melfort Hotel with an after dinner speech by Jim McColl of BBC Scotland’s Beechgrove Garden.  Day passes are also available for garden tours and daytime talks.  Call to book on 0844 493 2100 or 01852 200233.

I visited the Gardens with my children last weekend and many of the rhododendrons were coming into bloom, so you will be sure of a wonderful springtime garden display.

We’ve been watching the red squirrel all this week on the nut feeder behind the offices.  No sooner have we filled the feeder than our little red friend is bouncing down the pine tree for a feast!
