An Impossible Garden, Sea-cliff Climbing and a dive into War History in stunning Wester Ross

  • Summary

  • Pennie Stuart and Dan Holland visit the jaw dropping National Trust for Scotland’s Inverewe Gardens, a place which feels like a tropical paradise right in the heart of a Highland wilderness! Walking around the garden its hard to believe it was the brainchild of just one man, the visionary plantsman, Osgood Mackenzie. In the year marking the centenary of Osgood’s death, its amazing to see how his legacy continues to grow and thrive. Away from the garden, Pennie heads north to climb an undiscovered gem of a sea-cliff with Hamlet Mountaineering while Dan dives into the remarkable history of one of the most daring allied operations of World War 2 at the Arctic Convoy Museum. Tropical paradise, hidden histories and daring sea-cliff climbs come together in this inspirational episode!
