Turnberry Point & Lighthouse

The Coig - The Shire

The iconic Turnberry Point and Lighthouse sits on the site of the moat of the old Turnberry Castle, thought to be the birthplace of Robert the Bruce. With views over to the Isle of Arran and Ailsa Craig, the lighthouse itself was erected in 1873 following concerns about the treacherous rocks below, and today it's close to the 9th hole of the Turnberry Golf Course.
