A scenic view of Dunure

South of Ayr, the small fishing village of Dunure merits a detour for the 13th-centure Dunure Castle, which stands in ruins on a rocky promontory on the Carrick coast. The pretty harbour, with its white stone fishing cottages, is the village’s focal point and keen-eyed Outlander viewers will recognise it from several scenes in season three. Dunure is well-placed for exploring coastal Ayrshire, and enjoying such activities as kayaking, white water rafting and mountain biking along the Ayshire Alps route. It’s also a handy base for those travelling to the islands of Arran, Cumbrae and Bute.
