Salthill Garden is located less than 200m of the sea, just outside Mountcharles, County Donegal. This contemporary garden whispers stories of walled gardens of the past. Today it stands independent of trends and restorative themes. The walls have stood for more than 100 years and have been well maintained. Since 1985, the lawn and cultivated perimeter have been gradually transformed by Elizabeth Temple to the present an individually styled garden. The evolution continues season by season, always featuring a good selection of perennials, vegetables and shrubs. Salthill Garden is a part of the Donegal Garden Trail. Open on selected days throughout 2013. May 1 –2, 4, 6-9, 11, 13-16, 18, 20-23, 25, 27-30. June 1, 3-6, 8, 10-13, 15, 17- 20, 22, 24-27, 29. July 1-4, 6, 8-11, 13, 15-18, 20, 22-25, 27, 29-31.
