The Pineapple
The Pineapple
,
Both strange and
beautiful, the Pineapple
has always amazed and
inspired visitors.
,
It was built in 1761 by the Earl
of Dunmore as a summerhouse
where he could appreciate the
views from his estate. At this
time, pineapples were among
Scotland’s most exotic foods.

The grounds are now an oasis for
wildlife and you can enjoy a
peaceful walk

A wide variety of unusual fruits and
vegetables once grew in the extensive
glasshouses and pineapple pits in the
Pineapple’s walled garden.
