Brings back happy memories . Spent many times in Dunure My grandfather was born in Dunure. I now live in New Zealand. It’s been years since I was back. Many times Ihave been at the Electric Brae. Such happy memories you have brought back to me. Thank you so much
Wow, you sure are a long way away now. Clearly the place holds a special place in your heart - glad I could bring back a few of those happy memories for you. Thanks for the comment, lovely to read. Thanks for watching!
When my wife and I were in Scotland 🏴 in 2019 we visited most of the sites you visited in this video. We visited Dunure and Dunure Castle was the first castle we visited! When we visited the harbor in Dunure, there was people jumping off the old light house into the water. And there was was an ice cream shop in one of the white fishing cottages. We stoped at the Electric Brae, that was very cool. I’ve never experienced anything like it! And we stopped at Trump Turnberry and have a bit to eat in the clubhouse. Thanks for this video and reminding us of the memories!!!
Thanks for watching John and I'm pleased it brought back some good memories for you. It was certainly an enjoyable day and a reminder of just how much there is to see in this part of Scotland. I know what you mean about the Electric Brae - it felt like some kind of supernatural force pushing the car!
Glad I could help bring back a few good memories, Kathleen. You are right, we have such a wonderful country! I really enjoyed my time in this area and was really amazed there wasn't more visitors around.
There is nothing what you can't go or do, you are "brave " , great video Matt, beautiful views , Scotland is beautiful ❤🏴...so great information also, thank you ❤☕🍨❤🍔🍟😊
@@MattWhitingsEurope hi Matt 🙋♀️you are very Welcome, my pleasure always🥰thanks to you dear and hope you have a lovely day , your videos are part of my life now 😊☕🤗🇬🇧❤🇫🇮
Thanks so much Kathy, that's extremely kind of you to say. I had a great day and to be honest I could have spent two days driving that section - I had to leave quite a few things out. 👍😃
Yes I would love to, there's a few more Scottish road trips I'd love to do including the North East 250, the Isle of Skye and Loch Lomond & The Trossachs. So much to see up there!
Your editing with the 'it works' as you roll backwards was ON POINT 🙌💪 I knew of a place like this in Eastern Canada, but didn't have a car at the time as I was too young to rent one to visit it - didn't know there was one in Scotland! Turnberry lighthouse was adorable - I'm so used to seeing them all white and turquoise in the UK, so lovely to see the trimmings yellow instead. The light you managed to capture in Girvan was beautiful - really appreciated the sunset at the beach. The weather has been better for you than what you'd hinted at the start of this series - though there seem to be scary looking clouds in the background a lot, it looks like you missed the rains on this day?
Thanks very much, it's the only way I could think of that demonstrated the illusion. I was just lucky that no one pulled up behind me whilst setting the camera up. I really liked Girvan, I was expecting to stay for 15-20 minutes but in the end I was there a lot longer. The rain and weather was worse than you're seeing on the video unfortunately, there were a few times I had to change my plans because it was so wet - don't like getting my camera out when it's raining as I've had a couple of occasions where condensation gets caught up in the lens and it's basically unusable for the rest of the day. I tended to continue driving when the rain came down - mind you for the most part it was showers and didn't cause me any major problems, however it's frustrating when you're on a tight schedule.
Looks like you went on down to Electric Avenue! The golfing really aged you; but an incredible swing! Stay safe on the edge! We take back the requests for more risks lol. Yea, more beaches! Must have been hard to stay focused on the road with that gorgeous sunset.
He called me over once he'd taken the shot & asked me if I wanted a go. I asked him if he'd be happy with me filming it and he agreed. I borrowed his driver and hit a 450 yard power ball as straight as a gun barrel. Bounced on the fringe of the green, rolled 20 yards and dropped in the hole. Can you imagine how devastated I was when I realised I hasn't hit record. Still, the sunset cheered me up!
Alisa Craig looked spectacular from where I was - mysterious and raw. I would love to visit it but didn't really have time to investigate how to get there. I heard afterwards they do tour boats from Girvan. The shape of that island is truly EPIC.
never heard o old stumpiel these towks are half dead, the coast is rather boring. What do they eat, what do they drink? This precisely I had my worst boat journey ever, frae Glasga to Belfast, I swore nevre to board a boat againHoots the noo!
Old Stumpy is a legend around those parts! Glad I was able to find him in the end. I loved the areas, I thought it was well worth a visit! Beautiful scenery and plenty to do. That boat ride sounds brutal, I'm not surprised it put you off. Thanks for watching!

Enjoyed that film very much had aunt in Girvan when I was young went down these parts a lot we have a lovely country to visit

Nice video sir. You even managed to capture my little boat. Glad you enjoy our lovely west coast.
Thank you very much, I loved exploring this area of Scotland - I had a great time! Cool that I stumbled upon your boat! Thanks for watching.

Thanks again Mariam for your support - much appreciated.

I live in girvan and so much to recognise
Yes it was a lovely little place and so quiet! I really enjoyed my visit but could of done with a few more hours. Thanks for watching the vlog!
Scotland is so magical. I believe this is your best video to date.
Thanks so much Kathy, that's extremely kind of you to say. I had a great day and to be honest I could have spent two days driving that section - I had to leave quite a few things out. 👍😃
Maybe you could back next year to discover more in the area.
Yes I would love to, there's a few more Scottish road trips I'd love to do including the North East 250, the Isle of Skye and Loch Lomond & The Trossachs. So much to see up there!
I would have to do that one in the high summer temperatures. I've heard some storied of their cold weather. I like warm, not cold and windy.
Ha I know how you feel, it can certainly get cold and windy in Scotland. Mind you, that's when all the midges come out!

An episode of Outlander was filmed at Dunure a couple of years ago.
Thanks for the info. Didn’t realise that! 👍

@@MattWhitingsEurope This is the greatest thing I've ever read! 😁😃
😂😂😂
The Stevensons were poinèrs in lighthouse construction, RKS was condidered a bit aethete, a wimp
What's a poinèr? Nice lighthouse, glad I got to see it!
All Curling stones are made of rock from Alisa Craig
Alisa Craig looked spectacular from where I was - mysterious and raw. I would love to visit it but didn't really have time to investigate how to get there. I heard afterwards they do tour boats from Girvan. The shape of that island is truly EPIC.
Turnberry Hotel, no one but Trump caĺls it Trump Turnberry
Sounds about right! 😆
