Dance Information

Culzean (pronounced "kul-layn" with the accent on the second syllable) Castle and Country Park is 12 miles (20 kilometres) south west of Ayr, overlooking the Firth of Clyde, near Maybole, Carrick, on the Ayrshire coast of Scotland, and is owned and managed by the National Trust for Scotland.

Robert Adam substantially transformed an earlier castle for David Kennedy, tenth Earl of Cassilis in 1775.
