The weekend was pretty good. Weather wise, Saturday was excellent, so we headed to Troon, via Irvine. At Irvine, we had a wander round the huge shopping center, before wandering down a wee street and unexpectedly coming across Seagate Castle. There was a plaque on the wall telling how the castle was the site of the signing of a declaration in the 13th Century, and how it was visited by Mary Queen of Scots it the 16th Century.
Further along the coast, we spend some time in Troon, where we had a game of crazy golf, and stopped off for lunch in the Postage Stamp pub. Excellent food.
On the way home, we stopped off at Dundonald Castle. It's a pay to get in castle, and closes at 5.00pm, so we arrived too late to get in and visit the castle, but we did get to walk round the outside and get some decent photos.
Next time we'll make sure we get there early enough to actually get into the castle.
