Dunure Castle

Dunure Castle: Crumbling Ruins & Outlander's Iconic Silk Hole

5.0 (1)

Clamber over the jagged ruins of this 13th-century clifftop stronghold for the best views across the Firth of Clyde. It takes about 45 minutes to explore the roofless stone chambers and the nearby beehive doocot. Visit during low tide to explore the rock pools on the beach below. It is free to enter, so save your cash for fresh seafood at the harbor cafe nearby. Fans of the show Outlander will recognize this as Silkmill.

Address: 19 Castle Road, Dunure, Ayr, KA7 4LW
