Cloncaird Castle, Medieval castle in Kirkmichael, Scotland

The square tower house rises above Kelsie Burn, featuring four storeys with an attic and a projecting third floor supported by corbelling.

The castle belonged to the Mure family in the 15th century, with Patrick Mure falling at the Battle of Flodden in 1513.

An armorial panel from 1585 remains on the castle wall, marking the period when the Mure family held significant influence in South Ayrshire.

The estate includes eight separate cottages for guests, each equipped with modern kitchens and accommodating between two to six visitors.

The castle grounds span 140 acres of Scottish countryside, incorporating gardens, woodland paths, and walks along the River Girvan.
