New GHGT Website
Galloway House Gardens new website is now on line and we have also produced a new leaflet in an effort to market the Gardens more effectively. We hope that our site will provide detailed information for visitors and those interested in the ongoing work of restoring Galloway House Gardens.
Our new web site was launched in March 2010 in conjunction with a new leaflet in an effort to market the Gardens more effectively, essentially to attract and interest more visitors both from the local community and those on holidaying or touring in the area. The web site is also designed and intended to raise the profile of the Gardens, not only at a local and regional level but to hopefully appeal to a wider audience from further afield to raise awareness, create a greater interest and demonstrate that the gardens and indeed The Machars as a whole, is a place and an area well worth visiting and returning.
In addition to this we wish to provide a much more detailed, open and informative forum to share our history, our aims and aspirations and of course post regular updates to chart our general activities, news and events. Also, to explain and improve understanding of any current or future plans for the gardens, woodlands and shore.
It is the Trustees absolute intention to ensure that visitors continue to enjoy access to these historic, beautiful, yet informal grounds. We endevour to continue our programme of complimentary new plantings and introductions, improve the standard of the current facilities and install those that we might lack. All this with the aim and intention of providing a more attractive, useful venue that may be better utilised by the community and offer increased opportunity for a wider range of activities.
If you would like to consider using an area of the gardens to host a private or community event or activity, please contact us to discuss your requirements.
The Trustees recognise the need to take greater measures towards improving the gardens and the need to explore as many avenues and opportunities as possible in an effort to successfully tackle the challenges that increasingly face us. Accordingly, the restoration and development of the garden is actioned at a rate that we can realistically achieve and that funds will allow.
