"My second stay at Elizabeth Anne's lovely guest house this year. Nothing is too much trouble. Rooms are lovely and clean, and spacious, which is good as I took two dogs! Breakfast was incredibly tasty, and served at reasonable times for those wanting a relaxing start to the day. There is a TV room, and a larger lounge area for folk to chill out after a day exploring the area. Really couldn't recommend this place enough..."

"The property was very relaxing and our stay was enjoyable. Unfortunatatly the property was looking rate tired. The cooker was difficult to use and when it did work was not very effective. The freezer needed defrosting We could not use the dish waste as the washer tablet compartment would not stay closed. With a little TLC with property would be excelent"

Blairquhan Cottages

10/10 Excellent
"We spent a lovely spring week surrounded by daffodils and rolling Ayrshire hills. The accommodation was very clean and comfortable with space for nine at wauchope cottage, which is part of the old stable/coach house. The staff were polite and the apartment was dog friendly as long as you can keep your dog in the kitchen or hall until it dries off as the livingroom and upstairs bedrooms have light coloured carpets. Overall a lovely holiday in an area and accommodation in which we would love to stay at again."
