Between
1777 and 1792, an old fortified tower castle was converted for
David Kennedy, the 10th Earl of Cassillis, creating at Culzean
(pronounced "Cullane") probably the finest Georgian
castle in Scotland.
Culzean is set in a Country
Park of over 500 acres. This offers something for everyone
with its wooded walks, the Swan Pond, a new (1999) Adventure
Playground, Walled Gardens, shoreline, Visitor Center, shops
and restaurants.
