    Independent Tours: visitors to Culzean are welcome to tour the castle independently. There are guides in most rooms who are always happy to answer questions. We also provide information sheets in each room, which give details of the architecture, furniture, objects and paintings. These are available in 9 languages (English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Dutch, Polish, Swedish and Japanese) and also a large print version.

    Booked Tours for organised groups: organised groups may arrange a guided tour of the castle. This must be done in advance by contacting the Reservations Secretary on 0870 118 1945. The maximum number of people for a booked tour is 30. Two or more tours can be booked, beginning at 30-minute intervals. The tour will last approximately one hour. There is an additional charge of £2 per person.

    Coach Parking:
    Coach parking is available at the Home Farm Visitor Centre (for access to the Information Centre, auditorium, restaurant, shops and toilet facilities) and the Deer Park (approx 5 minutes walk for access to the Castle, Fountain Court Garden, Old Stables Coffee House and Castle shop).
