Dunure has always been an enterprising wee place.

Fishermen and skippers have always been on the lookout for new ideas, new technology, and new ways forward for their families and themselves.

We have to recognise that times have moved on, fishing is no longer the mainstay of the village, and Dunure still offers opportunities and a bright future for our families.

Here are a few of Dunure’s businesses.

The Harbourside


Come and relax in our beautiful wee cafe whilst the fab crew take care of you.


The Harbourside Coffee and Kitchen works together with local suppliers to serve freshly prepared breakfasts, lunches, homemade cakes, hot drinks & more.

Open 10:00 to 4:00.

The Anchorage

Brilliant pub meals, an excellent selection of drinks from the bar, and a warm welcome await you in The Anchorage. For as long as we can remember, the Anchorage has enjoyed an enviable reputation for its pub grub. Well deserved – it’s not unknown for the chef to be out in a boat in the morning catching the lobster for the menu that night!

We are open:

Monday to Thursday 10:00 am to 8:00 pm
Friday and Saturday 10:00 am to 9:00 pm
Sunday 11:00 am to 7:30 pm

Amour Wedding Videos

Hello and welcome to Amour wedding videos! I’m John Estcourt and live in South Ayrshire.

I have been filming weddings throughout Scotland for about 22 years, but it only seems like yesterday that I started.

Since then I have filmed hundreds of weddings at locations in England and throughout Scotland, including the Isle of Skye , Inverness and Dumfries.

I still believe that more is best , so I have stuck with the full length documentary film style as the main film.
