Not for us in Ayr

Stayed for a couple of nights was given a room on 3 floor last flight of stairs was very tight corner could on carry 1 bag at a time to be safe,room very tight for space and dated door to the bathroom was very hard to open so if you got up through the night you woke your partner with the noise pulling it open, heat in room was very bad and had to try to sleep with room and bathroom windows pushed wide open so the lone dog from the neighbourhood could be heard until the early hours until the gulls took over at dawn, so not the best place we have stayed at oops nearly forgot the stale breakfast cereal in the plastic containers yuck that said the lady owner was very pleasant

Friendly B&B with an old charm

Julie the host was a lovely lady and very friendly. Nice breakfast, ample street parking. Room has an old charm, but all works well for the stay. Clean toilets. Would recommend and will return if the opportunity arise.

This B&B is nicely situated to go to either the beach or the town. The staff are very helpful and friendly and you feel as if you have known them for years just after meeting them for the first time. It is excellent value for money as breakfast is included in the price whereas many B&Bs now add this as an extra.
