Lovely house and lovely room in a nice part of Ayr. Handy for everything but still a nice and quiet location. Spotlessly clean, fresh decor, great heating in the room so it was very cosy.

Situated in Ayr, 100 metres from Ayr Beach and 2.9 km from Greenan Beach, Burnside Guest House features accommodation with free WiFi in a historic building.

The hotel is situated on a quiet street close to the coast and within five minutes to some lovely restaurants and bars and some local shops . We were in Room 3 on the first floor. It was a lovely room with a big bay window which had a massive king size bed and a single bed in the room, I think it was a family room with an ensuite shower room. We booked this room via Booking.com. It wasn’t cheap, well I don’t think I paid £126 for bed and breakfast The room had a lovely ceiling rose and original coving. The room came equipped with a small fridge, large TV on the wall. Lots of tea and coffee, biscuits and a kettle, bathroom and some toiletries also. The room was clean and the bed was relatively comfortable.

Located in Prestwick, within 1.1 km of Prestwick Beach and 4.7 km of Ayr Racecourse, Rose Cottage provides accommodation with a garden as well as free private parking for guests who drive.

The location could hardly be better; a short drive from Glasgow &, if you are flying, Rose Cottage is close to the airport. It is nice that it is close to the main street & the seafront. A perfect launchpad from which to explore the wonderful Ayrshire coast.

    Facilities were excellent, Margaret and Brynn were great hosts and made me most welcome. Breakfasts and evening meals were great. The location is relaxing and tranquil with bus transport only a 20 min walk away, although care must be taken on the country road. I would not hesitate to recommend Havenwood to anyone.
