Don’t take our word for how genuinely super these gardens are. Here is what visitors to Mount Stewart Gardenshad to say:
“Mount Stewart is renowned for its beautiful gardens, and it doesn’t disappoint.
There was still lots of colour in the autumnal borders, but for me, it was the layout and structural planting that impressed.”
“There are plenty of walks around the estate. We did the popular lake walk and you do get some great views of the lake during this walk.”
“Lots of new reclamation going on here so that every time you visit there is something new.
Recommend and the rose garden just past the lake or the squirrel hide where you can get a chance to see red squirrels in their natural habitat”
“Stunning! Fantastic forest walk. The manor was fab and staff super friendly, informative, and helpful. Lovely sunny day out.”
