Hiking, biking, fishing, shooting and cycling can all be enjoyed in the local area. A golf club can also be found within a 15-minute walk of the hotel, and Edinburgh city centre can be reached in less than an hour by car. From the moment we got there, we were made to feel very welcome. Very positive energy and environment. Lovely place to stop even for just a night. Had some lovely conversations with the owners, was lovely to get to know their story a little as well:)

Set in Ayr, 1.2 km from Ayr Beach, Abbotsford Hotel offers accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a restaurant and a bar. This 3-star hotel offers a 24-hour front desk, luggage storage space and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is situated 3 km from Ayr Racecourse. We arrived late at the hotel, but we were strongly welcomed by the hospitality team. The room was very quiet and comfortable, especially the bed and the chair - I had so restful sleep for two nights. The full water and milk bottles gave us a feeling of abundance. The breakfast was very delicious and big - even for a small breakfast! It's absolutely a delightful experience for both of us. Thank you team!

St Columba Hotel has a garden, shared lounge, a restaurant and bar in Iona. This 3-star hotel offers a concierge service and free shuttle service. The property is non-smoking and is set less than 1 km from Iona Abbey. The Hotel is owned and run by people from the Island Community. That's a wonderful thing because it means that the hotel is connected to the place in which it is situated and Iona is a very special place. The Staff are sound, the food was great and the location is wonderful. The three of us travelled by bicycle from Oban. We will be back for sure. Go raibh maith agaibh go léir.
