Celebrate Ayrshire at Culzean a success
Celebrating Ayrshire at the National Trust for Scotland’s Culzean Castle and Country Park was a big success last Sunday.
Celebrating Ayrshire at the National Trust for Scotland’s Culzean Castle and Country Park was a big success last Sunday.
More than 1200 visitors packed into the park to sample the best of Ayrshire’s food, crafts and entertainment, all set in the stunning grounds at one of Ayrshire best-known and loved visitor attractions, Culzean Castle.
Despite the showers, visitors really got in to the spirit of the celebrations, enjoying music from the Tonality String Quartet and Maybole Pipe Band, having their faces painted, sampling the fantastic locally-produced food that was on offer and admiring the handsome Ayrshire cows that had come along especially for the event.
Event organiser and Culzean ranger Kate Walker said:
“Ayrshire has plenty to shout about, so we were delighted to host an event that would really celebrate our local area, its people and its produce. It was fantastic to see so many families having such a great time, enjoying the entertainment and exploring Culzean. I don’t think the showers dampened the enthusiasm on the day.”
