Take a walk with me through the magnificent grounds of Culzean Castle & Country Park NTS 🏰🌳

​Perched high on the Ayrshire cliffs, this iconic estate is one of Scotland's true treasures. From enjoying tea and cake at Home Farm to wandering through the vibrant walled gardens, visiting the deer park, and taking in those breathtaking views across the River Clyde towards the Isle of Arran, it was a fantastic day out.

​Sit back, enjoy the garden tours and coastal scenery in my new video here: https://youtu.be/Pf4g3X0yvRY
