Ardstinchar Mews

Ardstinchar Mews suits families and groups looking for a full house to themselves on the Ayrshire coast. The terraced cottage has four bedrooms—three with king beds and one with singles—spread across two floors, along with three bathrooms so there is space for everyone. One dog stays free, and the enclosed garden comes with a hot tub positioned on the tiered grounds with views across the field towards the water.

The ground floor combines living, dining and kitchen areas with a pool table, while the kitchen handles full self-catering with an oven, hob, dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer. Bed linen, towels, wi-fi and heating are included. A travel cot and highchair are available on request. The location sits in Ballantrae itself, a quiet village on the Ayrshire Coastal Path where you can walk for miles along the shore; the village hosts seasonal events and has a visitor information point. Girvan, voted the UK's most dog-friendly town, lies 15 minutes away by car and offers a harbour, leisure centre with swimming pool, and boat trips out to Ailsa Craig. The coastline here draws walkers interested in wildlife—red squirrels, deer, otters, seals and birds are regularly spotted—and opportunities for fishing are nearby. No smoking inside the property.
