Lonely Planet review for Asticou Terraces & Azalea Garden
Asticou Terraces & Azalea Garden, designed in 1900, is simply lovely. This 200 acre garden is laced with paths, little shelters and ornamental Japanese-style bridges. Azaleas and rhododendrons bloom profusely from mid-May to mid-June. Don’t neglect to wander up the garden’s Thuya Lodge, the depository of botanical books, where there’s a reflecting pool and well-tended perennial gardens. The terraces zigzag through the woods and down to the water.
