Hill of Tarvit Mansion & Garden
As we move out of the coronavirus lockdown, we’re pleased to be able to welcome back visitors to our outdoor spaces. Some of our buildings (historic buildings, visitor facilities, cafés and shops) remain closed. The toilet facilities at Hill of Tarvit are closed. We urge people to follow Scottish government advice to carefully observe social distancing.
Planning your visit
We want you to enjoy your visit to the grounds – your safety is our priority. This means we’ve had to make some changes so that we can keep everyone safe. Please read our Guide on what to expect before you set off.
Please see our drop-down Facilities below for helpful information about planning your visit.
For more information about planning your visit please see our frequently asked questions.

Facilities & access
We have an ongoing programme of accessible content development. Detailed accessibility guides for the most visited Trust places are available on our Accessibility pages as well as links to useful resources.
We’d love you to visit the Euan’s Guide website to review the accessibility of Trust places and tell us (and others) what’s good and where we need to do better.
Parking for disabled visitors is available on the forecourt, which can also be used as a drop-off point.
Dogs are welcome throughout the estate and gardens but must be kept under close control/on a lead. Assistance dogs only are permitted in the mansion house.
Parking is free for members and golfers.
There are lovely walks through the woodlands up to the top of the Tarvit Hill, from where you can see as far as the Perthshire hills on a clear day.
We’re developing parts of the gardens into a plant finder’s garden, which reflects the collecting ethos of the Sharp family. Follow the special trail to discover many fascinating and unusual plants along the borders in the north garden.
