A fine Renaissance palace with an extensive formal garden and one of Britain’s oldest tennis courts. Falkland Palace & Garden provides a unique opportunity to explore a royal ‘pleasure palace’ inspired by the grand châteaux of France, with a Victorian twist. One of Falkland’s most famous royal residents – Mary, Queen of Scots – was enchanted with the palace, and took advantage of Falkland’s vast estate to pursue falconry and hunting, while also enjoying a game of tennis in what is now the oldest surviving real (or royal) tennis court in the world. Today, visitors can wander through our historic orchard, complete with a living willow labyrinth, and marvel at the beauty of our formal gardens designed by Percy Cane.
