Hi

Thinking about taking our two boys (almost 4 yrs and 2 yrs) for a week to Haven holiday park in Ayr in October.

Prices seem reasonable but looking for any info from those who have been.

Or indeed any other recommendations.

thanks

Hi there

We went to Loudon Castlet today.

Its a great place - prices are 10.99 for adults and 9.99 for children, but you can use Tesco vouchers to get in.

Today it was not busy - many of the rides were only about 1/3 full.

We all had a great time.

Thanks viccig..those websites look a lot of fun. Was the cottage you stayed in a tourist board one?

Spooky - my in-laws stayed there just last week!

Quite honestly, I don't think they were very impressed. From what I understand, there wasn't an awful lot to do, so they did a lot of daytrips. The farm park (Heads of Ayr) right next door is great, though (we went there too).

They used to go there a long time ago when it was a Butlins, but apparently things have changed for the worse since then. Ho hum.

I went at Easter a few year ago. There is a nice pool on site plus some on site activities. The adjacent farm park is good. However we were struggling a bit for activities for a week, but maybe much better in the summer as Ayr is a seaside resort.

I'm originally from just outside Ayr and there are loads of things to do in Ayrshire. It depends whether you want to stay in Ayr or drive a bit. As has been said there's the farm park. In Ayr there's a lovely beach. On way into Ayr from Haven there's a large park called Belleisle where you can have a lovely walk round and look at the animals - all free. In Dunure there's another small beach and runied castle. Culzean castle is nearby. Pirate Pete's indoor adventure park is on the seafront. My kids (4 & 2) love going there when we go home. There's loads more that I could rattle on about but if you do want any information about anywhere in particular please pm me and I'll do my best to help. You could check out https://www.intayrnet.com for info too.
