- Join me as I uncover Edinburgh's Secret Garden, exploring the tranquil beauty of Dr Neil's Garden, a hidden gem nestled in Duddingston Village.
This stunning garden, unknown even to locals, offers a serene space for meditation, relaxation, and contemplation.
Located in the shadow of Arthur's Seat and on the shore of Duddingston Loch, Dr Neil's Garden is a testament to the city's rich history and natural beauty. As we wander through the garden, you'll be captivated by the diverse plant life and the peaceful ambiance.
Our journey doesn't end there. We'll also visit Duddingston Kirk, a historic church with a fascinating past.
Finally, we'll cap off our adventure at The Sheep Heid, the oldest pub in Scotland.
So, come along and discover the lesser-known side of Edinburgh with me. Please comment, and share and let me know what you think about Dr Neil's Garden.

Another place I had no idea existed! Fantastic. What an oasis of calm in the heart of the city!
Definitely be back in the summer when it’s in full bloom! 😀
What a beautiful place! Love seeing all these hidden gems!
Thanks so much Callum - another gem coming up on Saturday! Hope you and Lucy are well! 😀
absolutely brilliant video, that garden looks like a hidden gem 💎💎 and love the look of the pub 🍻
Glad you enjoyed it! Bothe definitely worth a visit! 😀🍺
Thanks for this, Rog, on another Edinburgh hidden gem! The Loch, walkways, garden, in a perfect, beautiful location. Had a nice day as well, and to finish at that pub, the icing on the cake. Also a good day in Alnwick, just leaving for a walk, might even stop off for a pint on my way back! Yes, Frances Hodgson Burnett wrote what many consider her best work, "The Secret Garden", published in 1911. Thanks for sharing. 👍 😊
Hey @Alan.92n - Thanks for the remionder on the book!
😲 You were in my village. I'm glad you enjoyed it. You need to come here on a summer evening to really get the beauty of it. 👍
Will definitely be back to see the garden in full bloom and sink a cold one at the Sheep Heid Inn in the summer😀
Looks absolutely beautiful! Great video, Rog!
Cheers Reese. Thanks for watching. 🙌
Roger that was one of the most beautiful places and one of your best videos😊 Richard in Newcastle upon Tyne
Thanks Richard. Can't believe I've only just found this place. 😊
brillant video i live in Edinburgh and didnt know about the secrect garden i will be going next week thks for sharing
Thanks Rachel! Edinburgh always seems to have these little gems hidden up its sleeve. Hope you enjoy your visit! 😀
Fantastic we plan to visit here in the summer we love east lothian Edinburgh region. We want to see inside the church as well
It’s absolutely gorgeous! Hope you have a great time when you visit East Lothian! 😀
Always used to do plant sales in Dr Neil's garden there 20+ years ago. I've heard about the Sheep's Heid but haven't been there yet.
It's a nice pub. The menu looked pretty decent too! 😀
Duddingston village is wonderful , surprised Dr Neil's amazing garden (founded in 1963) is open in winter as it's usually March to October , it is even more magical in spring & summer , i was there last June during a 'heatwave' & it really felt like a tranquil garden of Eden with numerous dragonflies , bees & butterflies amongst all the plants & flowers , i remember the 1975 BBC tv series of the Secret Garden , only 7 episodes were made. Hard to believe the Kirk is almost a thousand years old ! , making it one of the oldest buildings in the city. Not sure if the Sheep Heid really does go as far back as 1360 , more likely 16th century as you said which could mean that the Golf Tavern in Bruntsfield (1456) is Scotland's oldest pub but the White Hart Inn (1516) in the Grassmarket also claims the title !. I hope the Queen enjoyed her meal at the Sheep Heid a few years ago after a day out at Musselburgh races , apparently the staff only had about an hours warning to prepare 😂, just around the corner from the pub is Bonnie Prince Charlies base for the Battle of Prestonpans in 1745 !. Keep up the great work Roger , it is really appreciated. 👍
Cheers Aidan! Fascinating how much history there can be surrounding a garden and a pub! 😀
Cracking video!
Thanks so much! 😀
I have heard of dr Neil’s garden but I have never been there,good video
Thanks very much! 😀

@@RogEdwardsTV Well, it’s a natural progress 🤷🏻♂️😊 Getting better each video 😀
And here I was thinking Dean Village on Leith was THE secret garden in Edinburgh :) Poke!
- Red
Dean Village is pretty incredible too - but Dr Neil’s Garden was a new discovery for me! 😀
It is a beautiful place and not too far from the city it's nice having a picnic there on a balmy summer's evening
Will definitely be going back when the flowers are in full bloom! 😀
Add her to Dr. Neil’s garden and the sheep in pub but I didn’t realize they park in the same area. I think I can get a bus out there and I might explore it when I’m there in May.
Definitely worth a visit! 😀
THE GARDEN WAS VERY NICE, BUT PROBABLY BEST VISITED IN THE SUMMER WHEN IT WILL BE AT ITS BEST, ROYALTY HAVE ALSO BEEN KNOWN TO POP IN TO THE SHEEPS HEID INN APPARENTLY.
Yep - will definitely be back when the flowers are in full bloom! 💐🪻🌹
