With some awesome road trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to experience everything that Rothesay, 19 miles away, has to offer. Explore the area starting with Mount Stuart, Rothesay Castle and Rothesay Ferry Terminal. Ayr is another terrific option. It’s 19 miles away and offers a variety of fascinating things to see and do. Ayr Beach, Brig O’Doon and Royal Troon Golf Club are only the start.
