Whitestone Cottage - Turnberry

We had a fantastic break at a lovely cottage. the warm welcome from the host and the cozy accommodation made us feel right at home. the breakfast provided was of 5-star standard and the location was ideal for exploring the area. the cottage had a quaint and cozy atmosphere, with private patios and entrances for each guest. We enjoyed the peaceful surroundings and the beautiful view of the lawn and woods leading to the beach.

The cottage initially had a slight damp smell, but it quickly dissipated with some fresh air.

Being very close to Glasgow Prestwick airport, just 20 km. We enjoyed our time on the sunny patio: D

The breakfast was delicious and the staff was very friendly and accommodating; we had a great time during our stay.

The location of the hotel is perfect, with a beautiful beach that you can walk to. The breakfast provided is exceptional, with a variety of options served in the room. The room itself is cozy and well-furnished, with a fridge, microwave, and toaster. The host is welcoming and knowledgeable about the surrounding area, providing helpful information for guests.

There are limited dining options within walking distance of the hotel.

We had the most good stay at a charming little cottage surrounded by history. The room, though small, had everything we needed and was impeccably clean. The cozy atmosphere made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. One morning, we were really surprised when our delicious breakfast was delivered right to our door. The host's attention to detail and commitment to our comfort made our stay special. Sitting in the sunny seating area outside was the perfect way to relax and enjoy the tranquil surroundings. We couldn't have asked for a better retreat. I highly recommend this hidden gem for a peaceful experience.

The historic building and beautiful hotel created a magical atmosphere. The spacious cottage and large patio were perfect for relaxing and enjoying the serene surroundings. And let's not forget the amazing breakfast that was served! I couldn't have asked for a better start to my day. Although the location was a bit off the beaten track and close to a main road, it quieted down at night and the 20-minute walk through the woods and fields to the seaside made up for it.

George, the host, was incredibly helpful and recommended lots of great places to visit in Scotland. The beds were super comfy and the bathroom was spotless. We loved the fully equipped kitchen and the delicious breakfast with fresh fruit and cereals. The location was perfect for exploring Culzean, Maidens, Dunure, and Turnberry.

Couldn't find anything to dislike, it was a fantastic stay!

The studio cottage at Whitestone Cottage was spacious and had a nice outdoor area to enjoy the garden and wildlife. the kitchen area was well-equipped for preparing meals. the bed was incredibly comfortable and the doona was one of the softest we've ever experienced. George, the host, was welcoming and provided tea, coffee, and even Kit Kats. the breakfast was delicious and generous. a highly recommended stay.

Felt super comfortable, no reason to complain.

The location of the cottage is stunning, with a path leading directly to the beach and Culzean Castle. the Studio room is peaceful and private, with a well-equipped bathroom and a cozy atmosphere. the hosts provide excellent service, going above and beyond to make guests feel welcome. the breakfast is exceptional, served beautifully on a patio overlooking the peaceful lawn and woods. the cottage also offers educational resources on Scottish legends like Robert Burns and Outlander.

The cottage does not have a view of the beach or the castle.

We had a wonderful stay at a lovely property with a direct path to the beach. George, the owner, gave us a warm welcome and provided us with everything we needed. He even offered us lifts to the wedding we were attending. The Studio room was peaceful and private, with a beautiful patio overlooking the peaceful lawn and woods. The breakfast served on our patio was exceptional. Highly recommend Whitestone Cottage for a relaxing holiday with great hospitality.

Cozy room in seaside cottage near castle. Comfy bed, quiet nights. Good book selection. Friendly, helpful host recommended great restaurant. Delicious breakfast. Would stay again.

Lovely cottage, fine views, knowledgeable host, well-designed, generous welcome treats.

Nothing, all excellent.

Beautiful cottage, surrounded by lovely gardens. Comfy and clean room with private outdoor area. Friendly and helpful host. Excellent breakfast. Perfect location with easy access to beach and castle. Hope to return.

Amazing value and fabulous service throughout our stay. the breakfast provided was exceptional, with attention to detail and a wide variety of options. the location of the hotel was lovely, set in a peaceful garden and with a beautiful patio area to enjoy. the walk to the nearby beach was a highlight, passing through scenic woods and open countryside with stunning views. the cleanliness and comfort of the rooms were also top-notch.

The hotel's location was a bit off the beaten track and on a main road, which resulted in some traffic noise during the day. it did quiet down at night.

The cozy little room was perfect for me and my daughter, and we loved how snug and comfortable it felt. the friendly and helpful staff made our stay even better, and the well-maintained gardens added to the overall charm of the place. We also appreciated the extra touches, like the comfortable beds and the good heating in the room. the location was ideal, with a beautiful 20-minute walk through the woodland to the beach. And being just a 5-minute drive away from other local attractions, restaurants, and places to relax, it was the perfect home base for our city trip.

One thing to note is that the walk from the woods to the beach took longer than expected, so I recommend going by car instead. the availability and cost of taxis in the area were not very favorable.
