Lovely home in Maybole
The Petite Chateau is a lovingly restored and cared for 200 year old home in a bucolic pastoral setting. Situated just outside the village of Maybole, the quiet surroundings are perfect for relaxing in the Scottish countryside.
The hot tub and BBQ hut amenities, and the incredible Aga hob in the kitchen allow guests to be perfectly happy staying home on the days they’re not out exploring the Scottish countryside.
Linzi and Kevin were a delight to work with and provided excellent recommendations for local dining and activities. They respond promptly to questions and are truly looking to make sure their guests have an exceptional stay.

Lovely home in a stunning setting
We had such a fun weekend at Petite Chateau. Nice big bedrooms, beautiful sun room, gorgeous garden. We loved the hot tub, the BBQ hut and the large outdoor seating area, possibly because we were blessed with excellent weather.
