Visited both the Botanical Gardens and the Sitio Litre. The respective charges per person was €3 and €4.75. The Botanical Gardens are more extensive and each plant and tree is labelled. There are a number of interesting specimens from all over the world and you can spend an hour or so walking round the paths. To spend longer, you would need a keen interest in botany. The Sitio Litre gardens are not as extensive but have more character. There are colourful plants and flowers as well as a pond with coi carp and a cage of love birds. One of the features is the orchid area. At the end of the garden there is a good café. Again, an hour would be sufficient

Visited these gardens partly as the botanic gardens were closed because of storm damage also because we were recommended to. They are the gardens of an old mansion and have been kept true to their original style for many years. There is a connection to Agatha Christie as there seems to be for much in this area. It costs €4.75 each to get in. The gardens are quite contained and paths with steps and steep slopes to get around. At the top level are two ponds, one with water lilies and the other full of Carp. From here you progress down to the crochet lawn, alley with many orchids and then to the bottom layer where there is a cafe plus 600 year old Dragon tree.The gardens are well kept although there was definitely a bit of faded elegance about the place. I was unimpressed with the cage containing some 20 lovebirds. I accept this how it would have been but they didn’t add to the place. The best part was the cafe where we had delicious lemon cake and good coffee.

What a find ! A small private garden having been in the ownership of British people since 1730 and several owners then have maintained the garden to it's present beauty. The lovely range of Orchids is breathtaking, the colours, size, and general beauty of these exotic plants is amazing. There are many other plants some from more tropical areas and some so typically English. There is another typical area, and that is the "tea room" where tea and coffee with lovely cakes can be purchased. It's a 5 minute taxi ride from Puerto sea front (4.5 euros), but it is walkable but quite a climb. The walk back is all down hill so is better.
