Malcolmston Farmhouse is situated in a peaceful, rural setting on the outskirts of the popular hamlet of Hollybush which is some 6 miles from Ayr and easily accessible by the A713 trunk road and conveniently located for the bus route. This part of Ayrshire has a coastal network of scenic towns and villages amongst rolling hills and panoramic beach landscapes.

Hollybush has a well-regarded local inn (the Hollybush Inn) whilst a range of local village amenities including primary school, post office and shops are available in Dalrymple (about 2.5 miles). The county town of Ayr is only a short drive away which offers a comprehensive range of excellent services including restaurants, shopping, supermarkets and a private co-educational school. The Burgh of Ayr was founded in the 12th century. Nearby Alloway was the birthplace of the poet Robert Burns. The town benefits from a wealth of public parks, good path networks and wide sandy beaches on the Firth of Clyde coast. There are some delightful river walks along the River Ayr including a deep wooded gorge ascending to a viewpoint known as Wallace’s Seat. There are frequent train services to Glasgow and beyond. Prestwick Airport, with a comprehensive schedule of international flights, is about 10 miles. Glasgow itself is easily accessible via the A/M77.

The popular racecourse in Ayr holds the Scottish Grand National and there are yacht marinas at Troon, Ardrossan and Largs. Fishing is available on the nearby River Doon, which offers some of South West Scotland’s best salmon and trout fishing. A number of Scotland’s most famous Links golf courses including Turnberry, Royal Troon and Prestwick are close at hand.
