The Iconic Turnberry Lighthouse at Sunset | Scotland | Ayrshire | 4K Drone Video | Trump Turnberry

Located close to the Ninth hole of the Turnberry Golf Course, Turnberry Lighthouse enjoys views across to the islands of Arran and Ailsa Craig. Turnberry Lighthouse is situated in what was once the moat of Turnberry Castle, reputed to be Robert the Bruce’s birthplace in 1274.
The lighthouse was built by John Barr and Co of Ardrossan, with the lantern made by Milne and Son, and the engineers were David and Thomas Stevenson. The light was first exhibited on 30th August 1873. It displayed a white flash every 12 seconds to distinguish it from the lights of Davaar off the Kintyre Peninsula and Corsewall to the south.
The lighthouse was automated in 1986. In the early 1990s, the cottages and surrounding grounds were sold by the Northern Lighthouse Board. The private owners subsequently sold the cottages to the golf hotel complex.
In 2016 the lighthouse was refurbished. It was transformed into the Turnberry Lighthouse Suite, featuring a bar open to golfers and members of the public. The lighthouse suite features two luxurious rooms - a far cry from the conditions in which the lighthouse keepers would have lived! The lighthouse tower was fitted with new glass, but there is no access to the tower, as the Northern Lighthouse Board still owns it.
The resort owner, Donald Trump, whose mother was born in Stornoway, purchased the Turnberry Resort in 2014.
On 24th June 2016, US Presidential candidate Donald Trump flew in from the USA to officially re-open the hotel.
