09 June 2024, Starts: 11:00, Ends: 16:00

Saturday 8 & Sunday 9 June  11.00 - 4.00  All around Cromarty

More than twenty-five gardens of all sizes and shape will be yours to wander around and find inspiration for your own home space. These are not show gardens and no one wins trophies but they are the joy of their owners who love to nurture them come whatever the weather throws at us.

Garden gates open at 11am and close at 4pm each day. Tickets are available from ‘The Hub’ at East Bellevue House on Church Street or from the dedicated Open Gardens car parking area on The Links. Tea and home baking will be on offer and musicians will be playing on Saturday from 12am and from 2pm on Sunday and there will be a roaming bagpiper about. The plant stall will offer a wide selection of locally grown flowers and shrubs to buy and on Saturday there is a chance to win a prize at the Tombola or to find a treasure at the Bric A Brac stand on Sunday. Please bring cash.
