Why visit Whitewin House garden?

Home to the renowned international Mezzo-Soprano Linda Finnie, Whitewin House Garden enjoys a prime position on Golf Course Road. As the first house built there, it stands proudly overlooking the dramatic vistas of the Firth of Clyde, Ailsa Craig, Arran, and the Kintyre Peninsula.

In May 2022, Whitewin House Garden was honoured with an invitation from a More4 Television representative to apply for Garden of the Year, recognising its distinctive character and setting.

Whitewin House Garden embodies a unique approach to horticulture — a true expression of ‘Art in Gardening’, where creativity, landscape, and planting design come together to form a living artwork.

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.
