Inland there is walking, cycling, gardens and castles to visit along with the opportunity to ride, fish, and golf. Culzean Castle Country Park, extending for over 550-acres has a network of wooded trails passing along the beach and Dumfries House, home to the world’s largest Chippendale collection, are both well worth a visit.

The property has a restaurant 50 metres away and is a 15-minute walk away (Wemyss Bay) from other cafés, takeaways (Chinese, fish and chips and pizza/kebab) and a dog-friendly pub/café within the train station to Glasgow, which is also the ferry terminal to Rothsay on the Isle of Bute. There is also a children and dog friendly village pub within Skelmorlie, although it is a bit up the hill.

Absolutely stunning cottage set in the most beautiful location right on the sea.
Absolutely stunning cottage set in the most beautiful location right on the sea. Property is finished to the highest quality and standard and has everything you could need when staying in a rental. Alan and Ann were wonderful hosts providing lots of local information. The cottage is in a great location with lots of places to visit within a short drive. The outlook from the windows is beautiful- lots of local wildlife can be seen. Very pet friendly. Would highly recommend.
