else we could do while here. Sorry but we are getting a ferry over from Northern Ireland and have never been before so dont have a clue. Would there be anywhere we could stay over? Thanks.
Hi thank you very much. We are going from Northern Ireland on coach and ferry and it is costing £22 for all in. Ive never been to Scotland before. Whats the weather like in the summer? Loundon Castle looks like a really nice place. Thanks again for the help.
Loudoun Castle is a great day out.(note the spelling for Googling)
Kilmarnock is OK, but imho Ayr is much nicer, then there's Troon down the road a bit too.
Are you hiring a car? How are you getting about? It's not really next to a town , if that's what you were thinking. We have used Tesco clubcard vouchers for our entries before, I think they still do them, check out Tesco now, as you need to order the deals.
Bring suncream, waterproofs and a warm jumper, the weather is the same as you'll get at home.;)
Haven Craig Tara is not too far from Loudoun castle, provides a cheap option for family accommodation if you like caravanning.

louden is in the countryside between ayr and the very south of glasgow (newton mearns) but closest town is kilmarnock.
if you are still around kilmarnock and want a free day out with kids try dean castle park

i guess the rest depends on what kind of accommodation you want and how long you will stay. (see things to do in glasgow thread)
sunny spells and rain and unpredictable.
louden is a fantastic family venue imho
i have always brought my own food with and there is a picnic area under cover.
it is a full day out on it's own.
hope someone comes along who can help with accommodation etc. (probably more expensive than your whole trip)

Sorry might be cheap and you can get on the Sun deal etc but is is MINGING!!!
Culzean Castle (NTS property) is a great day out, especially if the weather is good. Sort of on the way back down to the ferry, too.;)
How far away from where?
