Explore the gardens.
Brodick Castle and Country Park is unique, as it is the only country park in Britain that is an island. The Castle offers 600 years of history, a fabulous collection of valuable artifacts, and stunning views over Brodick Bay to the Ayrshire Coast on the Scottish mainland. From the formal walled garden to its woodland walks, the Castle Gardens provide an unrivalled experience. Brodick holds three national collections of rhododendron, which flower in almost every month of the year. With its backdrop of mountain peaks, terraced lawns and luxuriant gardens, Brodick Castle and Country Park is what comes to mind when someone mentions a Victorian ‘Highland’ estate.
Enjoy a solo visit of the castle and explore the gardens at your leisure.
