Lochwood Farm Steading is situated one mile off of the B714 ‘Saltcoats to Dalry’ Road in North Ayrshire.
We are also well signposted so you won’t miss us !!!
We are in a great location, with Prestwick Airport being only 25 minutes away and Glasgow Airport approximately 40 minutes away. Edinburgh Airport is slightly further away at 90 minutes away.

If you are arriving from Ireland via one of the following ferry links…
…then you will find that we are only a 20 minute drive from Troon and just under two hours by car from Stranraer.
The major towns of Ayr, Kilmarnock, and Largs are also all within 30 minutes by car, but have good transport links if you intend arriving by train – www.scotrail.co.uk – or bus – www.spt.co.uk.
Please note that we are not situated on a public transport route. We would therefore recommend that you have some form of transport with you in order to get the most out of your stay.
