What can I expect?

Surrounding Hillsborough Castle lies a spectacular landscape of gardens that invite visitors to slow down, explore and reconnect with nature. Spread across almost 100 acres, these historic grounds combine formal garden design with wild woodland beauty, creating one of Northern Ireland’s most enchanting outdoor spaces.

Begin your visit in the beautifully restored Walled Garden, originally created in the 18th century to grow fruit, vegetables and flowers for the castle. Today it remains a vibrant working garden where seasonal planting and colourful displays change throughout the year.

From here, wander through the elegant Jubilee Parterre, where symmetrical planting beds and vibrant blooms create a charming formal garden setting. Continue along winding paths into peaceful woodland areas and discover hidden corners like The Glen, where streams flow beneath tall trees and birdsong fills the air.

Don’t miss Lady Alice’s Temple, a romantic 19th-century garden feature offering stunning views across the surrounding landscape and lake. The calm waters and meandering waterways create the perfect backdrop for relaxing walks and memorable photos.

Along the way, keep an eye out for rare plants, magnificent specimen trees and beautifully designed garden “rooms”, each with its own character and atmosphere. Families can also enjoy interactive trails such as the imaginative garden play experiences designed to inspire younger visitors.

Whether you come to admire the horticulture, enjoy a peaceful walk or simply soak up the beauty of nature, the gardens of Hillsborough Castle promise a truly unforgettable day out.
