Dunduff Castle, Tower house in Maybole, Scotland
The castle features an L-shaped structure with thick walls of 1.5 meters, three barrel-vaulted chambers on the ground floor, and a square stair-tower.
Construction of Dunduff Castle began in 1696 by the Stewart family, remaining incomplete until its restoration in the late twentieth century.
The name Dunduff stems from Gaelic language elements that translate to either Hill of the Stag or Black Hill Fort.
The castle stands on a rocky elevation above Drumbane Burn, providing views across the countryside toward the sea near Dunure village.
An Iron Age fort called Dane's Hill lies 170 meters west of the castle, indicating centuries of continued settlement in this location.
