Achamore Gardens, located on the Isle of Gigha, Scotland, was established in 1944 by Colonel Sir James Horlick with the assistance of Gardener Kitty Lloyd-Jones. Spanning 54 acres, the gardens are renowned for their impressive collection of Rhododendrons and Camellias, thriving in Gigha's warm microclimate, alongside many notable and unusual plants from around the globe.

The gardens feature stunning woodland walks filled with diverse flora, including champion trees and exotic herbaceous borders, as well as a Bamboo Maze for visitors to explore. With breathtaking views of the islands of Islay and Jura, Achamore Gardens serves as a haven for wildlife and a delightful destination for nature enthusiasts.

Scorton Nature Reserve

Scorton Lakes Nature Reserve, located between Brompton on Swale and Scorton village, offers 9 kilometres of scenic footpaths and bridleways that wind through enchanting woodlands and wildflower meadows, showcasing stunning lake views. This tranquil space is dedicated to preserving diverse wildlife and providing a peaceful retreat for nature enthusiasts and those seeking quiet reflection. Originally a World War II RAF base and later quarried for gravel, the area underwent restoration starting in 2008, transforming it into a thriving nature reserve. However, plans by Tancred Gravel Ltd to develop a holiday home complex and retirement apartments pose a significant threat to this designated Site of Importance for Nature Conservation (SINC).
