It is understood that Visit Scotland will now include Dunure on the official Outlander map, which tracks locations used in the series, according to a report in the Daily Record.

Bill Grant MP told the newspaper said: “I’m delighted to hear that Dunure will once again feature as a location for Outlander.

“It’s a gem of a village, and the arrival of a film crew brings a boost to the whole area.

“I know too that some of my constituents have landed jobs, including as ‘extras’ during filming.”

Filming of season 4 of the show is now well underway in Scotland with other locations including Crieff, Perth, Falkland, a graveyard outside Falkirk and Cumbernauld Glen.
