Really nice place to visit even when the Castle is Closed. We visited on a closed day and did the Blue Walking route with the Dog. Really lovely relaxing walk and I have to say the best way marked route I have ever walked. Most marked routes are absolutely useless but these routes are very well marked and mapped out. Toilets are clean and there is a nice cafe and shop. We brought some plants. We will come back and have a look around the castle one day. Well worth a visit.

This is an amazing space for families to have fun. The gardens are spectacular and the play area is fun. There are mountain biking and cycling paths plus walking routes for those who prefer to walk. There is a cafe and small businesses on the property as well. This is really a beautiful place in Scotland!

Everyone knows Drumlanrig from the signposts on the M74, it's well worth the detour, not just for the castle (which is amazing, especially the tour) but for the gardens and forest walks around it. Teashops great too, with good food and service. I don't walk well and the guides ( who gave such an enthusiastic tour), helped by providing a chair in every room. The tour leaves the best till the last room, worth doing to find out what it holds.

What a stunning place! The gardens are magnificent. Lovely paths through woodland and looked like a fun adventure playground for children. We didn't go inside the castle. We bought sandwiches and coffee from the little cafe near the adventure playground to takeout and enjoyed eating them in the woodland.
