A beautiful place for anyone who loves gardens and has a thing for plants. The entire complex is very lovingly maintained and you can spend hours here exploring the different types of gardens.The shop is also highly recommended, a nice selection of gardening supplies, books about the region and very pretty souvenirs.

A must visit on your trip to the Bay of Fundy area! Beautiful garden and very cute gift shop. There is also a cafe but it wasn't open when we went. Our favorite part was the rose garden.Pictures are of the garden in early July. A great time to go!

This place is magical. I took too many photos to share here, but as a garden enthusiast, I was thrilled to walk through the grounds and really appreciate the flora I encountered. I can't imagine anyone visiting Annapolis Royal without going to this place!
