Waters Edge Retreat Ochiltree

Immersed in the rolling landscape of Ayrshire, this timber-clad retreat provides a tranquil base for couples and small families keen to discover one of Scotland's most picturesque corners. Golf enthusiasts are spoilt for choice, with renowned courses such as Turnberry Golf Course, Prestwick Golf Club, and Royal Troon Golf Club all within 13 miles.

History lovers will find plenty to explore too, with Culzean Castle, Dumfries House, Dundonald Castle, and Dean Castle all within a 15-mile radius. 5 miles away, the village of Alloway celebrates the legacy of Robert Burns, where visitors can see his thatched birthplace cottage, browse the museum devoted to his work, and cross the famous Brig o' Doon.

Inside the lodge, a bright open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner creates a sociable hub for your stay. Comfortable sofas face a Smart TV for easy evenings indoors, while the well-appointed kitchen has everything needed for home-cooked meals.

A round dining table sits by the window, framing views across the surrounding fields, and doors lead straight out onto the decked terrace. Two inviting bedrooms await at the end of the day.

One contains a super-king-size bed that can also be arranged as twins on request, while a king-size room comes with its own en-suite shower room. A stylish family shower room completes the layout.

Outside, the enclosed decked terrace is arranged for al fresco dining, with garden furniture and a hot tub overlooking the countryside and the nearby river. Additional seating beside the water gives you another quiet space to sit back and take in the scenery.

Private parking for up to two cars is available for a hassle-free stay.
