Whisk your special someone off to this traditional stone-built cottage sitting on peaceful Ayrshire farmland on the fringes of the sleepy town of Stewarton – just 20 miles outside Glasgow. Sleeping two people in one bedroom (plus two more on a sofa bed), it’s overflowing with character and is a perfect accommodation option for romantic couples who are searching for a beautifully-styled bolthole to call home while they explore Ayrshire's glorious countryside and coastline together. Enjoy scenic country walks right from your doorstep, or make your way into the town of Galston (10.5 miles) to visit the magnificent Barr Castle and Loudon Kirk. In the evening, come to your cottage’s outdoor hot tub, pour yourself a glass of something cool and crisp, and sink into the bubbles to watch the stars come out.
Pull into your private parking spot (there's room for four cars) and step inside your romantic country retreat. Head through to the light-filled lounge, where patio doors frame the countryside and open straight out into the garden. The sofa here converts into a double bed for two extra guests. When it’s time to eat, make your way to the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner to cook up a storm with some superb local produce. Share a casual meal at the dining table, or step out into the enclosed garden and dine alfresco on the patio while you gaze across the fields towards the Isle of Arran. Afterwards, treat yourself to a dip in the outdoor hot tub, or head to the lounge to stretch out on the sofa and flick on the Smart TV. When the day is done, a stylish double bedroom promises a peaceful night’s rest. A smart shower room completes the layout.
Head off for a romantic stroll on the 1-mile trail along Annick Water at Lainshaw Woods (1 miles), or make your way into Mauchline (14 miles) to explore the Burns House Museum, where the poet Robert Burns spent one of the most creative periods of his life.
