No 27-29 Castle Road is a superb building plot occupying a wonderful elevated position overlooking the ruins of Dunure Castle and the Firth of Clyde to Arran and the Mull of Kintyre.
The plot is situated about 7 miles south of Ayr Town Centre and about 6 miles from Alloway, the birthplace of Robert Burns. The pretty coastal fishing village of Dunure is notable for the ruins of Dunure Castle and its picturesque sheltered harbour. The Anchorage Restaurant/Bar is also well known locally for providing good food and there is a popular coffee shop (The Harbourside Coffee & Kitchen) with primary schooling available at Fisherton (about 1 mile).
The established market town of Ayr has a wide range of excellent services including cinema and shops, supermarkets, together with a range of dining experiences and sports facilities. Wellington School is the highly regarded private co-educational school in Ayr and there are
several good state schools. Ayr offers a regular train service to Glasgow and beyond. Prestwick Airport is within 11 miles. Glasgow itself is easily accessible by rail and road.
Ayrshire is renowned for its many golf courses including the world famous facilities at Turnberry (10 miles). Royal Troon and Prestwick, are also close by. The popular racecourse in Ayr holds the Scottish Grand National and there are yacht marinas at Troon, Ardrossan and Largs. In addition to golf and sailing, the Ayrshire coastline is renowned for its beautiful beaches and vistas. There is a fabulous scenic coastal walk from Dunure harbour to Culzean Castle which is part of the Ayrshire Coastal Path which stretches for some 91 miles, and runs along Ayrshire’s sandy beaches through rural countryside with superb vistas out to sea with the great Ailsa Craig and the attractive backdrop of the Isle of Arran seen across the Firth of Clyde. Culzean Castle and Country Park Estate also lies about 7 miles to the south with a variety of waymarked woodland paths and clifftop walks and the enchanting landscaped gardens of Culzean Castle to explore. The coastline offers many other outdoor recreational pastimes as does the extensive countryside of Ayrshire.
