Rooms with a view atop one of Scotland's premier tourist attractions

Possibly one of the grandest bachelor pads ever constructed, Culzean Castle perches on the Ayrshire sea cliffs, commanding views across the water to the mountains of Arran and the Mull of Kintyre. Until the latter part of the 18th century, Culzean was a relatively modest castle keep belonging to the Kennedy Family. Enter David Kennedy, the newly succeeded 10th Earl of Cassillis, who commissioned the great Scottish architect Robert Adam to provide him with a fabulous bachelor abode where he could entertain his friends in high old style. Adam obliged, creating his final masterpiece, which was completed in 1792. In 1945, the Kennedy Family donated their home to The National Trust for Scotland - but not before gifting a six-bedroom apartment on the top floor of the castle to General Eisenhower as a 'thank you' to the wartime hero from the Scottish nation. During his retirement, Eisenhower spent time painting and walking in the castle grounds. The self-contained Eisenhower Apartment is now available to discerning guests, elegantly furnished in country house style, with a cosy dining room where guests can enjoy fine Scottish food and a round drawing room offering spectacular sea views.
