Garden Holidays Banner

The centrepiece of Pitmedden is the Great Garden which was originally laid out in 1675 by Sir Alexander Seton, 1st Baronet of Pitmedden. The elaborate designs inspired by the garden at the Palace of Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh have been painstakingly re-created for the enjoyment of visitors. In the 100-acre estate at Pitmedden is situated the very fine Museum of Farming Life which presents a vivid picture of the lives and times of bygone days when the horse was the power in front of the plough and farm machinery was perhaps less complicated than today
