The 10 Best Fun Activities & Games in South Ayrshire, Scotland
The village of Alloway is home to the Robert Burns Birthplace Museum and the Robert Burns Heritage Trail. Highlights of the trail include Auld Kirk Alloway, Burns Cottage, Burns Monument Gardens and the 13th century Brig O'Doon. South of Alloway along the attractive A719 coastal road is Culzean Castle and Country Park which offers much of interest all ages. En route is an unusual roadside attraction called Electric Brae, a 'magnetic hill' where a car left out of gear will appear to go uphill due to an optical illusion. A few minutes drive from Culzean Castle is the famous Open Golf championship course at Turnberry where the clubhouse is open to the public.

My wife and I (and our little 5 month old) really enjoyed doing the Abandoned Academy room today. Some really nice touches including nods to some local history, attention to detail with the items in the room and a satisfying logic to it all once you work it out. Really friendly and welcoming while managing the necessary COVID procedures. Would definitely recommend!
