Once a strong fortress on the summit of a rocky promontory, Dunure Castle consists of a ruined 13th-century tower, which was later altered and extended, surrounded by a curtain wall. There is also a 15th-century block, at lower level, containing kitchens, a hall and private chambers. There is a well-preserved beehive doocot, dating from the 16th or 17th century.
