Rozelle Estate covers an area of 37 hectares in South Ayrshire, which has beautiful plants and interesting wildlife such as birds, swans, ducks and squirrels etc. The estate opened to the public in 1968 for cultural and leisure use to access the grounds of the Rozelle Estate to enjoy walks around the stunning woodland, rhododendron walks, parkland and ornamental ponds. Inside the estate there is two galleries one of which is Rozelle House Galleries which is the permanent home to a collection of 54 paintings based on poem Tam O’ Shanter written by Robert Burns Scotland’s most famous poet. Rozelle House is also the home to the Ayrshire Yeomanry Museum. The other gallery has a collection of traditional and modern works by commissioned artists and works purchased by the Maclaurin Trust who are the benefactors of the gallery. Throughout the estate there are a series of sculptures by the world famous sculptor Henry Moore.
Disabled Access In and Around
Average
A majority of the walkways are slightly muddy and bumpy through the woods and around the ponds. Visitors in electric wheelchairs or even manual wheelchairs should be alright on the grounds.
Parking & Transport
Average
There is a few disabled parking spaces by the rugby pitches and which are near the entrance to woodland paths. The car park has a lot of potholes and it is rather gravely.
Accessible Toilets
Bad
Unfortunately the toilets weren't open.
