Logie House Garden

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Logie House is one of the Scottish gardens built in Baronial style.

History

[edit]

Logie House was begun for the son of the Cumming family as a tower house in the 16th century. [1][2] After several innovations in the following centuries, in 1924, the house was bought by Sir Alexander Grant, a businessman who started McVitie & Price and developed the digestive biscuit. [2][3] Now the garden is equipped with shops and a cafe and hosts exhibitions and events, attracting visitors as a sightseeing place[4].
