We turned up at the gardens with an hour of opening time left to find the whole place closed. Apparently there hadn't been many visitors earlier so whoever was in charge had decided to shut up shop early and go home. Another disappointed couple arrived...More
Lovely mixture of cultivated and natural gardens and woods. Wander around the inner gardens, then take a stroll through the outer gardens and woodlands. If you manage to walk around all the gardens you will feel you have no guilt about that cup of tea...More
When you're walking around the garden it's difficult to remember you're on a Hebridean island. Argyll's warm and damp climate makes for lush vegetation. Colonsay House Gardens cover a large site and although much of it is woodland, there are still plenty of flower gardens....More

We took a long walk through the gardens, woods, and grounds of Colonsay House, using the map provided in the café, and enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and flowing stream surrounded by many trees and ferns. We saw some roses and hydrangeas, but unfortunately for us...More
Visited here a few times whilst here on holiday great place to walk our two Springer Spaniels there was plenty of places for them to run and streams to swim in

Nice garden with a stream flowing middle of it. There is also a vegetable garden and some roses. I especially loved a woodland garden, it is such a peaceful and lovely place to walk on! Huge trees on the main garden are wonderful!
