House vacation rentals in Ayrshire

Absolutely beautiful place to stay. Mark the host gave us super easy and clear instructions to get to, and get in the caravan which made things super easy. The caravan is absolutely stunning, so clean inside with absolutely everything you need, from plates, cleaning products, even a slow cooker and dishwasher. Everything was left for our one year old including a cot and blankets, and they even had bubbles, loads of games and books for all ages. The WiFi worked really well and honestly we couldn’t fault it. The site was lovely, although there wasn’t loads to do for the kids, they made use of the golf, football pitches and pool. The entertainment was decent and we even won £500 at bingo! Thanks for a lovely stay!

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!

We have just returned from a lovely weekend at Badgers Rest. The home was beautifully clean, had everything we needed and in a great location. The facilities were amazing nearby too.

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

Geraldine’s place was perfect for our stay . It’s a beautiful home , I couldn’t fault anything and so handy , it’s within walking distance of the town, beach and the ferry terminal to Arran . It was exactly as described . Geraldine was also so quick to respond to any query we had. Genuinely wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again.

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.

We loved our week at Simon’s place. Beautiful, peaceful and lots of lovely places and beaches to visit. Seals and dolphins passed by. Loved the kayaks. House was warm and comfortable with great facilities. We hope 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.

A beautiful house in a lovely setting, great for family get togethers, location right on the lake was amazing, & easy access to lovely local town of Glenridding for essentials. Wide range of facilities at the cottage, we really enjoyed the private outdoor eating area next with the wood fired outdoor grill. Very nice well appointed kitchen with quality appliances, bathrooms clean and with quality fittings. Outside garden/woodland area was perfect for us and our dog, although the many steps and steep paths would not suit everyone, but this factor is clearly explained in the information host provides. We found some rooms a little dark, especially on a rainy day but there are some lovely lamps which can be moved around if required. Overall I would recommend this cottage as a great place to stay & enjoy the lake district and all it has to offer.

Lovely place, beautifully done up, fully equipped kitchen. Walking distance to the pub. Great sea view......we watched the otters playing in the sea from bed! Didn't meet Sarah but she was always helpful and responsive when messaging.

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 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.

Quite possibly the easiest air bnb to check into, absolutely immaculate and amazing location with the most stunning views!! Will 100% be returning!

The cabin was superb, although the midges came out to play every day. You can avoid the worst of them by avoiding dawn and dusk, & using Smidge and Citronella candles. The hot tub was a must although it does take a little getting used to. My tip would be to give yourself plenty of time, use decent quality dried birch logs and use the bubbles to mix the water regularly. Keep an eye on the temperature as it can get REALLY hot. The cabin was great for spotting wildlife - we saw Ospreys, and had a spotted woodpecker eating off the bird feeders, though sadly no red squirrels. One thing worth a mention is that there is a SMALL fish farm just 'round the corner on the Loch. This might put some off, but the Loch was lovely and clear and we swam and paddleboarded without incident. Clachan Inn in Dalry well worth a visit, but be prepared for a very laid back evening - they aren't in a hurry but the food is worth waiting for.

Loved our stay, beautiful grounds and gardens. The house was perfect for our family getaway and very comfortable all round.

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!

The property was fantastic being very well equipped, comfortable and spotlessly clean. The location was stunning with wonderful views and direct access to a private beach. Spotting wildlife from the house felt special, particularly the otter sighting. The extra touches in the house including a welcome pack, were much appreciated.
