Kelburn Estate covers an area of over 3,500 acres, starting at the edge of the sea and rising to a height of 1,300ft. Some 2000 acres is rough moorland, and 1500 acres of the better land is contained within a 7ft wall that encircles the heart of the estate.

One of Kelburn’s most outstanding features is its glen. The Kelburn Glen with its waterfalls and deep gorges is regarded as one of Scotland’s most beautiful woodlands and leads to spectacular views over the islands of the Firth of Clyde.
Whatever the weather there's always something to keep the kids occupied at Kelburn.

Our most popular attraction is the Secret Forest, a complex of woodland paths and raised walkways with surprises at every turn.

Then, there's our famous Adventure Course, a challenging trail of high walkways and rope Swings, our fortress-style Wild West Saloon, with a 20ft high tower and our Playbarn, a softplay maze of tunnels, slides and dens.

Lastly, Kelburn possesses some incredible venues and a professional events team that routinely host a wide variety of events.

Come and see for yourself all of the magic, beauty, adventure and fun that can be found on this very special estate!
