House vacation rentals in Ayrshire

Our 1st time at Cruggleton Lodge - though we have stayed at the relatively adjacent High Lodge several times. As at HL before, we had an idyllic week - which the facilities at CL provided an excellent foundation for. CL is secluded, set in the edge of woodlands, with breath-taking views out to sea. The walk through the woods down to Garlieston starts literally outside the door. Woods containing deer, hares and a wide variety of bird species. Have already booked again!

Host was very friendly with very good communication throughout. On arrival the host made it very easy to get into the lodge and came in and explained all amenities on site and was very polite. Overall, throughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend and return.

Amazing homely cottage in a nice private location. This was our last night of rest post-NC500. A shame we only stayed a night, could easily have done a few more and really explored the amenities in the village. Nonetheless a fantastic stay, very comfortable and friendly hosts.

We loved the house and Drymen. The added bonus of the use of the pool, sauna and jacuzzi was brilliant. The house was comfortable and homely. Drymen was a lovely little village with lovely pubs, cafes and walks. Along the road there was a beautiful view out over Loch Lomond. I would really recommend. Jim was super helpful and let us in a little bit early, thank you so much.

The park itself is a 1 way system and the caravan was quite high up. However we stopped to speak to groundsmen on site who straight away said follow me I’ll take you to the caravan. All staff were lovely. The caravan was as described. Very homely and modern. The outdoor space is amazing with lovely rattan furniture and hot tub. We used the hot tub everyday and it’s big enough for 6 people. The weather unfortunately wasn’t on our side all week so we didn’t dine outside. However I would definitely return. We had a slight issue with heating the first night. Lisa was back and forth messaging and said she would contact staff at reception to rectify the next day. However this was sorted over text in the end. An amazing stay, great views across the water. It was beautiful x

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, Douglas is an attentive host who was available when needed. The bungalow was equipped with everything we needed for cooking and resting which was much appreciated as our stay was over Christmas! Douglas very kindly gifted some wine and chocolates and he was there for our arrival to show us around the house, giving some useful information on nearby shops, places to eat and things to do. We were unfortunate with the weather; however, the bungalow was very cosy and thoughtfully decorated for Christmas and time spent inside looking out at the fabulous views made up for it!

This place was beyond our expectations. Immaculately presented, super clean, tidy, jaw dropping views. I can't fault it in any way and I can't rate it highly enough. Will definately look to return in the future. Stunning!

Another great stay at Mary's wonderful accommodation! I cannot rate it highly enough and will be returning again in the near future!

Excellent host.

You absolutely have to choose Claire’s place! Beautiful house with breathtaking views from the bedroom and lounge. Very responsive, helpful & generous. Beautiful town and easily accessible from the accommodation. Super comfortable beds & very spacious house throughout: bedrooms, lounge, bathroom & kitchen. When we come back to Scotland from Australia we will make the trip back to Claire’s!

We had a great stay in a beautiful part of Scotland. Great communication from our host before and during our stay and the house was perfect for a multi-generation half term family holiday. The house is spacious and even the mixed Scottish weather couldn’t dampen our spirits! Highly recommended

We had a fantastic long weekend at Smithfield House. The property is fantastic and so well equipped, our group made the most of the BBQ pavilion and whilst we were blessed with some Scottish Sunshine we loved the outdoor heaters and lights that allowed us to stay outside for longer without feeling the cold. We had a number of kids with us and loved the enclosed courtyard as they could run around and were safe. The games room was also a huge hit with everyone and was so convenient that the property had an EV charger.

We loved this Airbnb so much. The area brought back such super memories for me as my wee Mum lived at the top of the street many years ago. The house is perfectly appointed with everything needed for a great stay. The big kitchen and spotless bathrooms, the lovely garden, and cute bedrooms are super. The proximity of the train, bus, airport, shops, pubs, restaurants and last but not least …the beach ….are excellent. The sunset last night 200% !!!!! Yes … book this beauty spot now. It is wonderful and the host is very responsive. Thank you John we can’t wait to come back !!!

Jason and Mairi were incredibly helpful and kind throughout our stay always ready to assist and make sure everything was perfect. The house itself was so welcoming and cozy, the view from the living room is amazing. Thoughtfully stocked with all the essentials we could possibly need. The surrounding area is stunning, with beautiful walks right on the doorstep. Highly recommends them.

Balbeg Cottage is exceptional: spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated and furnished and incredibly well stocked with anything you could possibly need. We had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend this cottage.

Wonderful property. Excellent location. Excellent attention to detail.

Liana is a wonderful host. Her place was perfect for our needs and convenient for visiting family. We plan on staying with Liana again, if possible, when we return to Ayr in 2026.

The house and grounds are spectacular- with amazing views across the Irish Sea to Cumbria and the Isle of Man. Amazing array of wildlife within the grounds- red squirrels, hares, roe deer, red kites all frequently sighted. The house is so comfortable and very tastefully decorated with very high quality fixtures and fittings. The surrounding area is very beautiful and so quiet and peaceful. One of the very best AirB&Bs we have stayed in, highly recommended.

Andrew's place is superb. He met us with a warm welcome and then we were shown our room which has the most incredible view out across the garden and the sea to the Holy Isle. Everything you need is provided for --extremely comfortable bed, very well supplied kitchen and a sparkling bathroom. For me one of the priorities in choosing an air b n b is that it should be accessible for me as a disabled person. Andrew's place fits the bill as i was able to easily access the 2 steps at the front of the bungalow on my sticks and then, again easily, transfer to using wheels around the property. Thanks again Andrew!

Had a fantastic nights stay here , very relaxed , bed super comfy loved the bath in bedroom , very nice touch with Prosecco would highly recommend and would stay again , thanks Ryan

Great house for our family Christmas, really spacious for the 7 of us, has everything you need , Craig is a great host very friendly and quickly responded to any messages, was the perfect house for what we needed.

My dog and I had a lovely relaxing time at the cottage. It was perfect for the 2 of us. It was quite remote ( but I like that ) in my opinion so you would need a car. The High ceilings make the cottage seem bigger and the paintings done by a local artist are lovely on the walls. The cottage had everything we needed, the heating was very responsive so in no time you are cosy, I didn't use the log burner but it was great and Betsey left lots of logs. The bath was lovely with lashings of hot water. Loved it, thank you Betsey and lovely to meet you and your beautiful dog.

Cosy Corner has a compact design and was very clean. The bedroom on the first floor had a lovely connected bathroom. The bed was king sized for taller folk. Downstairs there is also powder room. The renovations and colour schemes on the cottage are delightful. Good access to surrounding suburbs of Glasgow which was important to our stay.

Honestly one of the nicest Airbnb's I've stayed in - would 100% recommend booking. The cottage itself is gorgeous with everything you could possibly need for a week away, comfy beds, fully equipped kitchen (even an air fryer) and lovely peaceful garden/surroundings. I felt right at home and did not want to leave! It's in a great area with lots to do, whether you like sight seeing, hiking or days at the beach. I will definitely be looking to book here again in the future!
