"Lovely clean lodge, kids bedroom a bit small,nice big hot tub, beautiful views.The pillows and pillow cases looked old and they could do with new ones.Very basic (4 plates,4 glasses, 4 forks etc. nothing extra) no tea, coffee or sugar. It will be nice to have like a welcome pack. No towels, but we knew about that. Needs hooks on the back of the doors, special in the bathrooms"

"Our Crofthead review: We stayed at Friarlands Lodge recently. Arriving late at night, we struggled a bit with directions, even with the instructions and had to go back to reception for help. The staff member there was really friendly and even drove us up to the lodge, which was a lovely touch. Once inside, we couldnt get enough of the beautiful decor - its truly stunning and tastefully done. The only real downside was that, for the first time ever, we forgot to bring towels! Had to dash to Tesco the next morning and spent £40 on four towels - bit of a pain! The outdoor space wasnt really our thing; the open decking meant everyone could see us while in the hot tub, which spoiled the privacy a bit. Weve been to Carrick Lodge twice and that place faces a field with gorgeous decor, so wed go back there instead. Overall, a lovely stay, just remember to bring your towels unless privacy isnt a big deal for you!"

Sat nav: KA2 9BS

Gravity hill 21 min drive · 13.2 miles

Electric Brae

Sat nav: KA19 8JR

A South Ayrshire road where cars seem to roll uphill, thanks to a clever optical illusion.

  • Families
Read more

The Electric Brae is a famous gravity hill on the A719, south of Dunure and not far from Ayr in South Ayrshire. The road looks as though it runs uphill, yet a suitably free-running vehicle will slowly move off from a standstill, as if something were pulling it up the slope.

Tip: The illusion runs between the bend overlooking Croy railway viaduct and Craigencroy Glen, so that quarter-mile stretch is the part to head for.

Drive times are typical times by car with no traffic. Check opening times and book tickets on each attraction's own website before you go.
