Pleasant
A nice property west of Ayr, nice views of the countryside. A bit like stepping through a portal and arriving in 1975, I expected to see Tom and Barbara making nettle tea, the decor would fit perfectly and the kitchen is a bit limited in terms of knives and other utensils. Just a minor point.

Another wonderful stay
This is the second time we stayed at the cottage. The location is excellent, there is so much to do nearby and we found new places to visit this year. There is a garage and small shop in the village but also a short drive to large supermarkets. Being away from the main road means that it's very quiet and peaceful with lovely views which we enjoyed throughout the week. The owners are nearby if we have any questions but we also have plenty of privacy at the bungalow.

Lovely stay
We stayed at this property as it was situated near family that we were visiting. Cottage was clean and the children loved the toys that were there. Lovely views of Arran and the sun setting out of the living room window in the evening. The cottage was a lot bigger than expected and also now has lino in the bathrooms. Well equipped kitchen. Good location. Approx 20 minute drive to Ayr beach which has free parking. Two small shops in village although we didn't use them. My dad visited the chip shop and enjoyed his meal.

About the host

Hosted by Sue Veitch

Host profile image
Sue and husband Marshall have lived and worked at Auldbyres Farm for over 30 years.
Our 3 children have left home so we have been welcoming guests to our farm cottage for the past 10 years, many of whom have become 'regulars' and family friends.
Please note that we are only a very small 'family' business - just the 2 of us - and the 1970's bungalow is 'dated', so, if you are looking for a chic, modern place to stay, this holiday rental is NOT for you!
It is however clean, quiet and comfortable - an ideal base for work teams or outbound guests who want to explore beautiful SW Scotland.
The large cottage/bungalow has its own private driveway, with lawned garden and rosebeds, and is secluded by a hedge on 3 sides, but we live just 'next door' and so are on hand in case our help and advice is needed.
Sue is an enthusiastic and knowledgable gardener and keen to show her much admired herbaceous borders to interested guests.

Why they chose this property

We bought the typical Ayrshire family farm over 30 years ago and now stock it with sheep and hens and grow lots of lush grass for hay and silage!

What makes this property unique

We love the freedom, privacy and spaciousness of our farmland with its mile of river bank and extensive woods and ponds - perfect for wildlife.
We live on a hill with panoramic views and beautiful sunsets.
A rural retreat ...and only 5 miles from a busy town and the sandy beach!
