Cottage vacation rentals in Ayr

A great getaway with loads to do close by for whatever mood you're in - great towns and cities like Calendar and Stirling less than half an hour away, equally beautiful countryside and multiple waterfalls, lochs and walks to choose from on the doorstep. Our toddler loved the on site swimming pool and the grown ups enjoyed the peaceful views from the hot tub too! Rosie was so friendly and accommodating.

We absolutely loved staying at the cottage. This was our third place during our Scotland trip and I am so glad we booked it. It allowed us to explore more nature scenes across Scotland and simply have a safe and comfortable home after exploring all day. If we are ever in Scotland again, we will certainly book again.

An absolutely wonderful stay at Tamano Farm for my partners birthday with our friends and toddler. The cottage is spacious, clean, family friendly and comfortable with all amenities you can ask for. The kitchen was well equipped and the large dining table was great for dining together. Our toddler especially enjoyed seeing the sheep, lambs and feeding the donkeys. The surroundings are very peaceful and scenic. We appreciated the effort to be as eco friendly as possible. Everyone loved the hot tub and sauna. Takes some time to set up, that is to be expected as wood fired but was well worth it and very relaxing. Very friendly hosts with great communication. No complaints about our stay at all we could have stayed for much longer. Thank you for having us!

We had a fantastic time at The Stables celebrating our rescue greyhound’s fifth birthday - she got to run around happily in the enclosed garden whilst we enjoyed our complimentary Prosecco in the hot tub!Secluded location, relaxing and everything you could need thought of by Paul & Fiona. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay with my family at this historic cottage. Especially loved the easy access to the Fife Coastal Path that we walked daily into Burntisland or Aberdour. Excellent hosts as well. Thank you for your hospitality, we would highly recommend this property!

Had a lovely stay at this cottage . Near to Edinburgh as my son was doing the marathon but in a lovely location . Kylie was response to our messages and a lovely homemade loaf gave that extra touch for our arrival . Would definitely recommend and stay again .

We couldn’t have asked for a better place and friendlier helpful host. Kathryn was attentive and was very responsive, always friendly and helpful. This cottage is very spacious, modern and clean. We really enjoyed our time here. We are already planning when to go back. The views from the windows and the hot tub are beautiful. There is so much to do, we needed much longer to explore more areas and go on more walks. We would definitely recommend this place.

The stables exceeded our expectations, and Margaret was an incredible host! already looking for when we can come back and visit again, this place is amazing!

Lovely residence exactly as described even down to little things like fresh flowers in every room and fresh milk in the fridge. Bed lovely and comfy so had excellent nights sleep. Would highly recommend.

Very convenient accomodation for exploring Dumfries and surroundings. Good communication with host . We might be back here if going to Dumfries & Galloway for a longer time.

Lucy is a very kind and generous person. She will do her utmost to help with any problems. Yesterday, I went out the back door to find a box of eggs from her chickens. She leaves them regularly. I know if there is anything where I need assistance I just need to ask and she's there. A truly super host

Beautiful sage and friendly place to stay- thoughtfully finished and a gloriously good sleep! Thank you so much ! Would definitely stay again

It has been a pleasure to stay in Zan's house. Very comfortable, clean and makes you feel at home. The children loved the horses, chickens and all the animals. It was the perfect spot to recharge our batteries

Gorgeous rural location. Very friendly host & family. Cottage was much larger than expected. We had a lovely stay.

Peel lodge was just a perfect stay for us. We were near to one of our daughters who was preparing for her imminent wedding. But also easy access to go exploring for our future home. The lodge was clean and tidy on our arrival . We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay here and would highly recommend .

Idyllic place in a beautiful location - short walk to the beach and the rat race event. Was super clean, shower is great, bed comfy and perfect size for myself. I lucked out in a sunny week and the lil terrace table and chair got sunlight through the day. Lorna was super responsive and quick and efficient. Great stay in a beatific island - recommend Goat Fell and Massif hikes - thanks

We loved the Studio, had a great 3 day stay and hope to visit again. The Studio is large, airy, well laid out, and well equipped, and we particularly appreciated the very comfortable beds and furniture. It's set in a large garden with great views. Very quiet and peaceful. The kitchen has a wide range of everything you need when you're self catering, all very clean. For a retired couple like us, it was ideal - thank you Gordon and Maureen.

What a delightful cottage. It had everything we needed + more. Great shower, comfy bed. After travelling for a few days we appreciated that there was a washing machine, and a dryer also if we needed it.Suzanne made us feel very welcome and left bread, milk, butter, coffee, tea and lots of other food items which we could use if we wanted. Her communication was great. The village is gorgeous and has a good selection of restaurants. We went into Belfast one day, catching the train from Bangor to avoid the stress of driving in a city we didn’t know.

Beautiful cottage in a quite private area. very homely and had everything we needed and more, even bread, butter and milk. Had prime etc. so plenty to watch on TV. Highly recommended if taking dogs on holiday as we were able to walk round the estate/paths and fields with no livestock so the dogs loved it, they appeared relaxed in the cottage and even had treats, towels and a bed left. They were able to be let out in an enclosed garden. Host was easily contactable with any questions and went above and beyond. although we did not take a third dog, when asked the day prior arrival if we could add a dog, there was no issues. I also left clothing which the host posted to my home address which was above and beyond given the inconvenience it would take to post this. The area is ideal as close to Troon (best fish and chips) , Kmarnock, Ayr and Dunfries house, so plenty to do, particularly with the dogs. I will defo stay again, in fact I just did not want to leave.

Luxurious accommodation in stunning location. The open plan cottage with beautiful views and bedroom on mezzanine floor gives a feeling of complete luxury - beautiful furniture-well fitted kitchen and extremely comfortable bed and bedding. Stayed here for 2 nights at the end of road trip for NC500 to visit family - so not much time to explore but will definitely be back and stay for longer next time. Extremely good value

I’ve stayed here on a few occasions both with family and on my own when touring the west coast by motorcycle. Every time i stay it gets better and more things are added to the beautiful garden for you to explore. Highly recommended and the Hosts can’t do enough.

A truly beautiful place to stay so warm clean and comfortable lots of places to visit a good position for everywhere. Alison is a lovely person so helpful. Cpuld have stayed fir lo ger. Will definitely be going back

We loved staying at Louise's place for a night as we travelled up the west coast. Check in was easy and everything was nice and clean when we arrived. The garden in the back is lovely and the two woodburners give a lovely cottage feel to the place.

The cottage is full of character and very cosy. It’s in a great location with fantastic walks on the doorstep. Bea was at the cottage when we arrived. She was super helpful with advice and very friendly. She was the perfect host. Would definitely recommend any one staying here.
