We had a perfect family holiday, 6 adults and 5 children. There was plenty of room inside and out for everyone. Well equipped to cope with a large group. Very comfortable large beds. Abundant hot water all the time.
The setting was amazing with constantly changing views across the sea to Ailsa Craig and beyond. The rooms are stylishly furnished.
Mark was a welcoming helpful host knowledgeable about the area and amenities and had a good rapport with the children. The snooker room was a big hit!

Lovely Lady Bank
Lady Bank House is lovely with views that look out onto the Ailsa Craig. The rooms are comfortable and there is plenty of space relaxing and socializing. For nature-lovers, the coastline is nearby with curlews, eider ducks and tidepool treasures. For art-lovers, the house itself features the owner's bronze works and other fine art as well. The setting is lovely and the region steeped in history.

Wonderful place to stay, we’ll be back!
Stayed here for three nights over new year and had such a fabulous stay. The house is beautiful and spacious and all 10 of us (ranging in age from 11 - 69) loved it. The pool room was a particular hit! The bedrooms and living areas are very comfortable, spacious and clean. We cooked every meal in the house and found everything we needed in the well stocked kitchen.
Mark was so welcoming, accommodating and very knowledgeable of the local area. Already looking forward to returning one day!

Beautiful house of character in delightful location
Ladybank House is delightful and in a stunning location.
It worked really well for our first extended family gathering since the pandemic.
Mark captivated us with his stories and explanations of the house's many art features and areas of interest locally.
Would recommend without reservation
We will come back again.
Thanks from us all

Perfect week
8 of us stayed here for a week in August and wow, what a breathtaking view from the house, not to mention how big the garden is which we were able to enjoy thanks to getting decent weather.
The inside of the house is also very beautiful with everything you could possibly need, with 3 bathrooms and an exceptionally well stocked kitchen to be able to cook anything you want with ease. That’s without mentioning the fantastic artwork on display
Also within throwing distance of turnberry golf resort and the beach that connects Girvan to Turnberry, location and setting cannot be beaten. We usually do our group holiday abroad but opted not too this year and we wouldn’t have noticed, I think we had an even better time here. So peaceful

Fantastic house and views of Ailsa Craig
Our family group had a fantastic week at Ladybank House. The house is spacious, very clean and the pool table was a definite hit with the children, as was the outside space for plating football and flying the kite. Mark was very approachable and knowledgeable about the local area and was very helpful in arranging with a local farmer to allow us access to the shore to launch our dinghy. The views of Ailsa Craig from the house are amazing and the house is within easy reach of a sandy beach at Turnberry, with Danure Castle and Culzean Castle country park also worth a visit. Thank you for a wonderful week.

The neighbours were kind and were happy to show the children around their farm.
