Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area. We enjoyed a full day there. We joined the guided tour through the castle which was very interesting, we did a couple of the walks, enjoyed the refreshments in the coffee shop and relaxed in the walled Gardens with our picnic. Would recommend a visit
2. Crossraguel Abbey
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 60 reviews
Founded in the early 13th century by the Earl of Carrick, the remains Crossraguel Abbey sit just a few miles south of Ayr on Scotland’s west coast. Although a ruin, the Crossraguel Abbey is still complete with the original monks’ church, their cloister and even their dovecot (pigeon tower). Fine architectural details from the 15th century can still be seen within the ruins with the chapter house still standing complete with benches for the monks and an arched seat for the abbot. The early form of the abbey's name suggests it meant the Cross of Riaghail and referred to a great standing Cross. Open summer only.

We were able to look around the walls, although there were extensive refurbishment works underway. We were staying at Culzean, and followed up on the historical links between the two places.

We spent the weekend at the castle to celebrate our friend's 50th birthday and it was undoubtedly an experience we will never forget. From the moment we arrived the staff made us feel at home. Nothing was too much trouble and their friendly approach in everything they did only added to overall experience. Our room was beautiful with a stunning view of the countryside and a bathroom to die for. I normally shower, but I could not resist the opportunity to soak in the wonderful bath. Despite having to cater for a large number of people the food was excellent. I cannot praise this place highly enough. It was absolutely fantastic and will be a pearl on the string of life for my wife and I.

A fantastic and relaxing way to spend my birthday evening. Lindsay was a great tutor, providing me with really simple, step by step instructions to help me prepare and produce a beautiful three course meal that I wouldn't have had the confidence or knowledge to...MoreThanks Nikki, it was a pleasure working with you!

Croy House is situated on Croy Shore, a beautiful location looking out toward Ailsa Craig and Culzean Castle. We were made very welcome by Alison who serves lovely homebaking and resident artist Roddy McKenzie . A very friendly couple who were on hand to chat and answer questions on the artwork that is displayed and the history of the house and area. Worth dropping in for tea or a coffee and a browse on a visit to the beach at Croy.
