It was a lovely day so the aquamarine sea views and the pine clad hills were seen to best advantage. The gardens are well laid out but do not compare with RHS gardens in the UK.

Beautifully maintained grounds, specimen naming flawless and comprehensive. Cactus garden not to be missed. Magnificent sea views from many vantage points on the walk. Walking around on hot summer days might be somewhat tiring, as the paths are not on the flat. More

Location, views, and well maintained? A surprise to see such a beautiful garden, especially using mediterranean plants, but at the end of the day it is the location and scenery which keeps drawing the eye. A must see the area, 3euros each offers very good value for money More

This large garden developed by Colonel and Madame de Woevodsky starting in the 20's just misses my top ten gardens of Spain list, but it is a treasure nonetheless. It is composed of beautiful terraces of plant collections running down the cape to the sea. There are numerous sculptures of interest. Garden lovers will appreciate that the maintenance is outstanding,... More

Really enjoyed our visit to the botanic gardens. So much to see and such beautiful colours. Had a really good walk some lovely paths. The Geranium way and the Cactus garden stand out for me. Loved the colour of the Castle brick work. Would definatly go back again. More
