Discover the Area
If you want to get out and about and explore what the surrounding area has to offer, you will be spoilt for choice. The nearby town of Ayr has everything you could desire from Golf Courses, Horse Racing and Cinema to Restaurants, Parks and historic Castles. For the kids there are Play Centres, Farm Parks and Crazy Golf and with numerous beautiful beaches along the coastline, be sure to pack your bucket and spade!
Ayrshire is renowned for the quality of its food and many local Restaurants reflect this. With an abundance of delicious fresh fish and seafood, top quality beef and mouth-watering Ayrshire potatoes or “tatties” as they are known, you will find excellent food wherever you go. Be sure to make time for a visit to nearby Culzean Castle where you can spend a day exploring the former home of the famous Kennedy family with its Deer Park, Swan Pond, Adventure Playground and acres of beautiful gardens and woodlands. And no visit to Ayrshire would be complete without a visit to Burns Cottage in Alloway, birthplace of Ayrshire – and Scotland’s – favourite son, Robert Burns. There is so much to do that you simply won’t have time to fit it all in.
Facts about Turnberry and Ayrshire
Ayrshire is rich with Scottish history. The region was inhabited from earliest times, and many historic castles and tower-houses, some in ruins, some preserved, remain throughout the countryside.
The focal point is the golf course at Turnberry. The most famous landmark is the Aisla Craig. An island in the outer Firth of Clyde, Scotland where granite was quarried to make curling stones. The now uninhabited island is formed from the volcanic plug of an extinct volcano, which is now a bird sanctuary.
Turnberry is situated on the west coast of Scotland and therefore experiences the warming effect of the Atlantic gulf stream. On a good clear day the cliffs of Northern Island are visible from the beach.
