Glenapp Castle
Glenapp Castle was built in 1870 - a strikingly beautiful example of the Scottish Baronial style of architecture.
Imagine a fairytale castle, hidden in 36 acres of glorious garden and woodland on the rugged and beautiful Ayrshire coast. Spectacular views across the Irish Sea to the island of Arran and the massive granite rock of Ailsa Craig. Imagine exquisite rooms, outstanding cuisine, fine wines and exceptional service a world apart.
Each evening at dinner, we serve a six course gourmet menu, expertly prepared by Head Chef Adam Stokes and his team. Our menus change daily and utilise the best fresh and seasonal local ingredients, including fruit, vegetables and herbs from the castle gardens. Map Overview

Gardens & Castles 0-25miles Not only is the castle sat in thirty-six acres of gardens and woodlands we are also surrounded by the amazing gardens of Castle Kennedy, Port Logan Botanical gardens and Threave Castle and gardens. National Trust property Culzean Castle sits on the cliffs of the Ayrshire coast and is open to the public from March to October each year.
Beaches 1-25 miles Outdoors, in the nearby area there are many beaches, the closest being in the village of Ballantrae. Ballantrae beach is mostly a pebble beach, but still offers a couple of miles of walking with amazing views of Ireland and Ailsa Craig. Sawney Bean’s Cave is worth a visit if you don’t mind a steep cliff path. Heading North from Glenapp you will come accross many beaches including the sandy beach of Croy Shore.
Golf 11-40miles Golf is one of the main outdoor sporting activities in the area, and there are four championship courses within an hour of the castle, these being Royal Troon, Prestwick, Western Gailes, and Turnberry. Other local courses include Brunston Castle and Girvan to the north, and Creachmore, Dunskey, and Glenluce to the south. Guests at Glenapp may also have access to the private Cally Course at Cally Palace in Gatehouse of Fleet, or even venture further east to Southerness. |
