Absolutely amazing

This is by far the cleanest place we have ever stayed in, this guest house is immaculate. The host are absolutely brilliant and the service they offer is fantastic. Breakfast is on a different level, everything you could possibly want and the young lad serving us was so smartly dressed and so very polite. Anytime we are going to Ayr again we will definitely be looking to stay here

If you can mange to stay at Lochinver in the spring, it is stunning. When in bloom this must be one of the most beautiful streets. The host was also very friendly and informative, and the breakfast was delightful. There are a lot of stairs if your room is on the top floor though, if that's an issue, but the rooms are very comfortable.
