This castle was converted into a private house in the early 1900's by Lutyens. Jekyll did the wall garden. The drama of the garden is best shown in photos as it is remote from the castle.

Lindisfarne Castle - England
Our first garden to visit on our grand 2019 garden tour of Scotland and norther England is Lindisfarne Castle. A remote place on the North Sea is an island at high tide but looks more like a pennisula at other times. People have been coming here for at least 2 millennia.
