Lendalfoot, South Ayrshire

Lendalfoot, South Ayrshire

This is a tiny hamlet in Ayrshire , with less than 100 inhabitants.

It is one of the hidden gems we enjoy showing clients on tours of Scotland.

 

The village is situated on the inhospitable Carrick shore , near Girvan.

This is where the Lendal water enters the sea.

 

It used to be a favourite place for smugglers.

Now it has a few local fishermen.

 

Carleton Castle is a striking ruin nearby.

It is perched on a rocky ridge inland from the village.

The castle was once owned by the Lairds of Killochan.

As a ruin it is still very interesting.
