    Overview

    Stay in the grounds of a fairytale Scottish castle on the South Ayrshire coast.

    Our campsite here is in an area rich with beautiful countryside and coastline, fantastic walking, stunning beaches and many interesting places to visit.  Our spacious, secure 90-pitch site welcomes all camping units and offers good facilities for campers.

     

    Pitch in the grounds of the clifftop Culzean Castle Club Site and you’ll be rewarded with stunning views across the Firth of Clyde to the islands of Arran and Ailsa Craig. Head north from the campsite and you’ll come to the coastal town of Ayr with its many shops, bars and restaurants. Fishermen can enjoy some fly fishing at Mochrum Loch close to the site. The 24 acre loch is stocked with brown, blue and rainbow trout.


    The National Trust for Scotland managed Castle and Country Park are a short walk away and include five kilometres of coastline with sand dunes, caves, rock pools and sand and shingle beaches.
