Quiet rural retreat a short drive from Ayr
The peaceful and relaxing rural location of this whitewashed country house hotel on a 300-acre estate just outside Ayr was popular with guests. From its secluded position, it was easy to drive to town for shopping, amenities, dining options and railway stations. The free parking was another bonus as was the proximity of the A70, A76 and A77, making it quick and easy to reach regional attractions, beauty spots, golf courses and Glasgow. Air passengers appreciated the proximity of Glasgow Prestwick Airport.
