With over 240 hectares to explore, we want to make sure you get the most from your day at Culzean.
Grazing livestock are present at this site, outwith the main visitor areas. However, please keep your dog under close control and let the animals have some space if you encounter them. Thank you for showing consideration for the safety of our livestock and wildlife.
Please be aware that honeybees are kept in hives at this site.

Our waymarked trail map will lead you on four different journeys around Culzean and you’re bound to discover something new during your visit.
We run a volunteer buggy service from Home Farm to the castle. While we aim to have this operating on a daily basis, the buggy service is solely operated by volunteers, and this may not always be possible. Please check with us prior to arrival to avoid disappointment.
Please see our drop-down Facilities below for helpful information about planning your visit.
Please note that BBQs are not permitted in Culzean Country Park.
