Arisaig 2026 8: The Grounds of Canna House

Continuing my account of my Scottish holiday with a look at the grounds of Canna House.

The front view of Canna House plus conservatory.

My most recent post in this series about my Scottish holiday (May 30th to June 6th) covered the outbound voyage to Canna, which was run as a wildlife cruise. This post now deals with the only special activity we had time for on the island.

CANNA HOUSE

Canna House is now owned by the National Trust. One can only go into the house if one books a tour, which we did not have time for. The grounds however are freely accessible, and feature a lot of interesting stuff. The gardens feature a lot of food plants, and there is some interesting historical stuff to be seen as well.

PHOTOGRAPHS

Here are the photographs for this post…

This was the first of a number of ‘information trays’ that found within….
…this structure, which challenged visitors to look inside in a way that I just had to respond to.
