Skip to contentCafé – open daily 11am to 4pm!
Located next to the Information Office is the Café. Prior to stocking delicious cakes, cold drinks, ice lollies and warm meals, the building was the stable block and the Dome was a midden! This served the Castle and estate homes until the turn of 20th Century and with changing lifestyles found its new use in 1977 when the Country Centre opened.
The Café currently offers limited indoor and outdoor seating.
‘The Dome’ provides shelter on a rainy day and shade on a hot summer afternoon.
The café can provide a sweet treat, a morning roll, a quick snack or a filling meal. There is a wide selection of drinks and a good cup of coffee to help you through your active day.
When the sun is shining, or even when it’s not, the café has ice creams, ice lollies and slushies to refresh you. Top up your picnic with drinks or little treats and you will find picnic benches nearby.
There are picnic tables dotted about the estate, plus grassy areas perfect for a picnic blanket, however, feel free to picnic where ever you can find the perfect spot!
Gift Shop

Located in the central courtyard is the Kelburn gift shop. Prior to hosting gifts, handmade local crafts, pocket money toys and souvenirs of your day, the building was the old Laundry and wash house. This served the Castle and estate homes until the turn of 20th Century and with changing lifestyles found its new use in 1977 when the Country Centre opened.
