Wonderful,peaceful,unique gardens. Beautifully designed. Will certainly go again. Spend time enjoying the gardens for all the small details. Would recommend buying a guide book first. Careful with the directions. Do not use Sat Nav.

The Japanese Garden in Dollar is certainly worth a visit and we will certainly be back. The garden is really photogenic and the circular walk is straightforward and we had a wheelchair bound member of the family with us. The garden is beautifully laid out.

Lovely day out. Hidden gem. Not heavily advertised anywhere, so it was a little surprise that I enjoyed it as much as I did. It’s honestly amazing. The best time to go is summer because the place is just really stunning with the trees and the flowers. Felt so calm and serene walking around the grounds. So many cool elements to it. Lovely water features and so many textures and everything. Got great photos. Quite busy when we were there. Has a cafe and everything. Time well spent there

Beautiful peaceful reflective and calm. Recieved a gift voucher with garden entry and afternoon tea. A most lovely gift for an exceptional experience in the garden and the tea room. Will most definitely return.

What an incredible place! The gardens are beyond beautiful. Such a serene place. And in the middle of such natural beauty, with so many other, beautiful places nearby. Everyone should visit once. Plenty of easy and free parking. Nice little gift shop and cafe.

Gorgeous little secret in the area. Even in early Feb and with elderly mother in buggy, the peaceful beauty was abundant. Paths were ok for a very basic electric buggy, no issues. And the cafe was spot on, relaxing and uncluttered with great food. Nice and clean, perfect.

Since moving to Fife a few years ago I'd heard a few people mention the Japanese garden at Dollar so finally went to see what all the fuss was about. I'm not sure if this is a "hidden" gem anymore as it was quite busy but a gem nonetheless. The gardens are immaculately well maintained in the traditional Japanese style and are a joy to wonder around, especially on a nice day. There are plenty of great spots for taking photos or just sitting and taking in the beauty of the place. There is a cafe, arty shop and ice cream parlour so everyone is well catered for. I'll definitely be visiting again in the summer and would recommend here to anyone looking for a moment of Zen in the most stunning of settings.

Book in advance. We drove the wrong way through Dollar. Do not travel that route, the road is way too small for 2 way traffic. Dogs are not welcome in the formal garden but can be taken on the lead though the woodland. It was busy even on a cold March day. It is an exposed site. It was nice to be able to hear the trees in the wind. Even though it was too early for spring flowers or blossom one could see a fine structure. The garden is well tended and is was a pleasure to walk about. We are planning to return in a few weeks time in hopes of blossoms.

A lovely garden with stunning scenery and a unique feel. Nature enthusiasts will have a great time looking out for the frogs all over the garden. We also really enjoyed our break at the little tearoom - the chocolate cake was one of the best we've ever had! Personally I wouldn't recommend visiting in April; it was very bitter during our visit and not much was in bloom, but I expect it's lovely in the summer months. There was also some noisy restoration work going on which didn't affect our visit too much but spoiled the scenery a bit. The garden is quite out of the way, so be sure to plan your journey in advance.

I have wanted to visit this beautiful garden for ages, but never found myself in a position to do so. My partner asked me what i wanted to do for my birthday this year, so I asked for a visit to this wonderful place. Tickets booked and we arrived as soon as it opened, it was busy but not too much that it was crowded. Had a lovely walk around the garden and even sat on the quirky toadstool shaped seat to pause and admire the view with a wee biscuit 🍪 Unfortunately we were unable to book an afternoon tea as it was fully booked a long time in advance, but it didn’t matter as the experience was lovely. The staff were so friendly and informative, especially regarding the plants to buy at the shop afterward. The beautiful yellow Azalea in the gardens smelled wonderful and I will be buying some for my garden at home. We will be back again, maybe in the winter to see the garden change with the seasons. Thank you for a lovely experience 🙂
