A visit and tour to Culzean Castle, designed by Robert Adams and truly one of his masterpieces, is one not to be missed with its dramatic clifftop location. Also worth a visit is the 18th century Dumfries House, part of the Princes Foundation which is home to an unrivalled collection of Chippendale furniture. The 2000-acre estate has been beautifully designed with stunning walks throughout the grounds. There are many pretty seaside towns to explore such as Ayr, Prestwick and Troon and there are very good rail links for a trip to the cosmopolitan city of Glasgow and also historic Edinburgh. The islands of Cumbrae, Arran and Bute are all easily reached for a day out. Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park is just over an hour’s drive and is well worth a visit.

This was our second stay at Tennox Stables and walking in for the 2nd time was just as magical as the first. The house is just stunning. It has everything you need for a fab time away. The grounds are immaculate and this time we managed to get into the museum and down to see the highland cows! Graeme is a top lad and nothing is too much bother! Cannot wait for our next trip!
