Ayrshire is packed with things to see and do, from the many golf courses in the local area including two champion courses and several links courses, Ayr Racecourse, and miles of stunning coastline to explore. Within Ayr itself is the internationally renowned Robert Burns Birthplace Museum and Cottage, and only a short drive down the beautiful coastal route is the stunning and opulent Culzean Castle, perched high on a cliff top, and magnificent Dumfries House, saved by the Prince of Wales, is just a short drive inland from us too. There are lots of other things to explore in the area, including Loch Doon and Doon Castle ruins, Dunure Castle ruins on the coast, and of course on the Isle of Arran just a short ferry trip away, is Brodick Castle with its outstanding interior collections, along with 'Goat Fell' - a must for hill walkers. There are lots of other fantastic walking opportunities in the area too, including the Ayrshire Coastal Path, the Carrick Hills and the foothills of the Southern Uplands.
We have seven beautiful guest bedrooms - all named after Clans associated with Ayrshire, each room with a different character and all offering a high standard of accommodation. Each room has either en-suite or private facilities.
