Description

Girvan 2 miles.

Burnside Bothy is a single‑storey holiday cottage located on Burnside Farm near the coastal town of Girvan, South Ayrshire, offering a well‑placed base for couples or small families seeking time by the sea.

Thoughtfully arranged and set close to the shoreline, the cottage balances sociable living with flexible sleeping accommodation.

At the heart of the home is an open‑plan living space, where the kitchen, dining and sitting areas flow together, creating a welcoming hub for shared time.

The sitting area provides space to relax with the Smart TV after days spent exploring the coast, while the kitchen is equipped for everyday self‑catering and the dining area offers room to gather for meals.

The accommodation includes two bedrooms, comprising a super‑king‑size bedroom which can be arranged as a twin on request, and a double bedroom with its own en‑suite shower room fitted with a walk‑in shower, basin and WC.

A further shower room, also with a walk‑in shower, basin and WC, serves the remaining rooms, helping to keep mornings running smoothly.

Outside, Burnside Bothy benefits from a shared garden, offering space to enjoy fresh air throughout the day.

Off‑road parking for two cars is available.

The coast is just a short stroll away, while shops and pubs can be reached by car.

Nearby, uncover the beauty of Culzean Country Park, where dramatic clifftop paths lead you past rugged coastline and down to quiet coves, while wooded trails wind through towering trees and open onto elegant landscaped gardens surrounding the iconic cliff-perched castle.

Families can enjoy a day out at Heads of Ayr Farm Park, where little ones can meet friendly farm animals, explore indoor and outdoor play areas, and make the most of seasonal activities that bring the park to life throughout the year.

For outdoor adventures, Galloway Forest Park invites you to roam miles of walking and cycling routes through ancient woodland and rolling hills, pause beside still, reflective lochs, spot native wildlife in its natural habitat, and experience some of the darkest skies in the UK, perfect for memorable stargazing evenings.

In nearby Alloway, immerse yourself in Scotland’s literary heritage at the Robert Burns Birthplace Museum, where you can explore the poet’s humble cottage, wander through peaceful gardens, and follow in his footsteps across landmarks such as the Brig o’ Doon and the atmospheric ruins of Alloway Auld Kirk.

With its coastal setting and practical layout, Burnside Bothy offers a welcoming base for discovering South Ayrshire.​

A really considerate renovation.

Beautiful setting, the pictures don't do it justice. Really friendly welcome from owners and plenty of useful local information in the folder. Fits 4 people very comfortably. İt has everything you would need. Asda supermarket open 7 days a week and cafe close by. Excellent WiFi. One of the nicest places we have stayed at, from a well travelled couple.

What a beautiful cottage - we were absolutely delighted with this accommodation so clean and fresh and beautifully laid out and decorated with quality furnishings.

The beds, pillows and duvets are wonderfully comfortable we had 4 nights of great sleep. The view is tremendous. Our dogs loved the garden though we didn't let them roam free as the gates were open. Jenny & Stuart gave us good information on places to eat and Stuart set the TV up for us so we could login to our streaming services. Our friends visited us on our penultimate day and were so impressed with the cottage (bothy) they will be booking up next spring for a stay. We definitely recommend the bothy to others who have dogs or not it's an absolute gem.
