Inverness Botanic Gardens

Fantastic compact botanical gardens, everything you want from botanics and more, but without all the wasted space. Free to enter with nice coffee shop (nicer than the leisure centre).

What a wonderful place! I absolutely loved our visit here. It’s a relatively small botanical garden with free entry (donations accepted and encouraged though!). It has a beautiful tropical 🌴 pavilion, space to wander and see plants outside, a fantastic cactus 🌵house and even a community garden to visit. Absolute gem :)

It is far from big but the plants that are there are beautiful and they are being taken care of. Free entry, so remember to admire the work and help them in any way.

Peaceful, clean and happy. Three words that describe this place, to come and cleanse the mind would be my idea here. To do that for free also is a bonus. Worth a detour on the way to Loch ness for anyone with an appreciation for nature and the pursuit of tranquility and peace.

Great attraction that is free to enter and relies on peoples donations. It isn’t the biggest place but has plenty to see. Really enjoyed walking around the tropical and cactus houses as well as a walk through the outdoor gardens, which were bigger than we first though. Would be a great place to bring kids to explore. Shadow the cat is great and friendly too :)
