Had a great stay for my wifes birthday, had a lovely stay, along with our dog (enclosed back yard). Easy to get to Ayr for pubs, restaurants and great walks along the coast (my wifes in a wheelchair) so nice and flat. The property has a down stairs bedroom with en-suite so ideal for my wife. Would highly recommend and definitely will be back. Also has electric car charging and parking which we used and really appreciated.
