Why visit Kirky Cottage Mindrum?

Kirky Cottage is 500 yards away from Mindrum, set in the beautiful Bowmont Valley, surrounded by the border hills.

Here you’ll discover old rose favourites, violas and salvias jostling among new finds planted in the cottage style garden. New additions and planting keep Kirky Cottage constantly evolving and ensure the beautiful garden is protected from the ever-present wind.

Your visit helps people in crisis

The Red Cross helps people in the UK and across the world get the support they need in an emergency. With Open Gardens, you'll be raising funds for this important work.
