Overlooking the Firth of Clyde and the Isle of Arran, Troon is a small seaside town in Ayrshire with a bustling port.

Troon has a small railway station (Barassie), and is only 45 minutes from Glasgow Central. Prestwick airport is within stiff walking distance (or a short cab ride) to the South, so travel arrangements are nice and easy.

It’s worth taking some time to explore this little gem of a place before you leave, though. Troon has stunning sandy beaches and magnificent views, as well as a wealth of independent shops and cafes and a fantastic fish market which serves the whole of Ayrshire.
