So back in that summer we had (that lasted all of 3 days) I took a jaunt down to Culzean Castle. I’ve been there a few times as there’s a cracking Scout run campsite where I’ve taken Guides.
It has fake ruins on the way to the house which I think are brilliant. Not super modern (Victorian even) but built at the same time as the main castle. Somehow I’ve ended up as a National Trust of Scotland member. Not complaining as they hold several places I want to visit.
Modern for the time, the house had is own coal gas plant supplying the house. The farm buildings nearby are the gift shop and main cafe. I’ll admit I didn’t walk far in the heat. There’s extensive grounds and swan pond as well as walled garden and cliff walk. This was just a short loop round the bridge, castle and back to the cafe to cool off.
