Eglinton Country park and Visitor Centre

Welcome to Eglinton Country Park 

Spring, summer, autumn and winter  the beauty of Eglinton Country Park is on your doorstep. Eglinton Country Park gives you the space and freedom to enjoy a wide range of pursuits. There are tranquil country pursuits, walking, horse riding, fishing on the lochside or simply watching the world go by. Or there's a full programme of organized events run by our Countryside Rangers right through the year. Eglinton Country Park is situated within the historic boroughs of Kilwinning and Irvine and was developed around the ancient Eglinton Estate, home for 600 years to the Earls of Eglinton and Winton.

The Visitor Centre

Our Visitor Centre has an exhibition on the Earls of Eglinton, local history and information on the 1839 tournament. Pay a visit to our gift shop where we have an extensive range of souvenirs and gifts. Children won't be able to resist the brand new state of the art all inclusive play areas. They can bounce, swing and slide to their hearts content!

Tournament Cafe

A trip to the Park wouldn't be complete without visiting the Tournament Cafe offering delicious, fresh, homemade food. If you prefer something cooling why not try the courtyard which offers a wide range of soft drinks, confectionery and our range of award winning Mancini's ice cream.

Campsite and Holiday Cottage

We have a holiday cottage which can be booked for short breaks and holidays. 

We have also established a 50-pitch basic camping site including 30 hard-standing pitches and 5 complete with electrical hook-ups.
