The lodge's location is celebrated for its tranquillity and proximity to Ayr beach and local walks, making it an idyllic retreat.
The comfort of the lodge is frequently commended, particularly the beds. However, one mention of smaller-than-expected beds in the second bedroom slightly affects the score.

Ayrshire is home to the Ayrshire Coastal Path, a 100-mile long coastal walk with one of the finest panoramic coastlines in the British Isles. Crowned with a superb backdrop of the ever-changing profile of the mountains of Arran across the Firth of Clyde, this coastline is steeped in history and teeming with wildlife, including red squirrels, deer, otters and seals, and is a haven for bird watchers.
Inland there are gardens and castles to visit, riding, racing and a choice of golf courses, with the world famous Turnberry close to hand. Culzean Castle (owned by the National Trust for Scotland) is spectacular and is Ayrshire’s most popular tourist attraction.
Ayrshire is the heart of ‘Burns’ Country’, steeped in tradition and history - you can visit Burns’ Cottage, The Burns’ Memorial Museum and the Brig o’ Doon (the bridge from the famous poem Tam o’ Shanter). Day trips to Ireland can be taken from Cairnryan, whilst a short drive leads to Ayr, a traditional seaside town. Glasgow and Edinburgh are easily reached for a day out. Glasgow, Stirling and Edinburgh are perfect for a day out, as is Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park, with ferry links to the islands of Arran, Bute and Cumbrae all within easy reach.

If you're looking for somewhere slightly of the beaten track. This is the place. Not too far but far enough. Generous friendly hosts. Lovely welcome pack for humans and dogs. Spotlessly clean, warm and cosy.
