Hôtels à Kilmarnock
Kilmarnock is steeped in mysterious history, passed down only by word of mouth. In 1668, the town was destroyed by fire and was not rebuilt until 1800, with the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. Fortunately for the people of Kilmarnock, much of the pleasure of living here comes from the surrounding countryside, and they could not be better placed. Nestled between Scotland’s spectacular west coast and the bustle of the city of Glasgow, our hotels near Kilmarnock put you in the perfect spot to experience the best of both worlds.
Réserver des hôtels à Kilmarnock
Book a hotel in Kilmarnock and you’ll be faced with a real dilemma: where to start, the town or the countryside? The recently renovated Palace Theatre is 2.4 km from our Kilmarnock hotel and is well worth a visit. Its exterior is even more impressive at night, so make the effort to see it lit up. If you’re coming to Scotland for its incredible scenery, Kilmarnock won’t disappoint. Head to Clyde Muirshiel Regional Park. It’s about an hour’s drive away, 34.3 km north of our Kilmarnock hotel, but the trip is well worth it. The Semple Trail is a 2–3 hour walk that takes you past ruins and lochs. Fingers crossed for good weather. On the way back, stop at Struther Farm House for a traditional Scottish meal.
Things to do in Kilmarnock
Si vous avez le temps de faire un tour à Glasgow, la ville se trouve à un peu plus de 35 miles de notre hôtel d’Ayr. Visitez le parc Kelvingrove, de style victorien classique. La Kelvingrove Art Gallery est toute proche, et c’est l’attraction gratuite la plus populaire d’Écosse, et ce n’est pas un hasard. Même si l’art ne vous intéresse pas, le bâtiment en lui-même vaut le détour. Si vous n’avez le temps de visiter qu’un seul endroit, choisissez le château de Culzean. À 25 minutes en voiture de notre hôtel d’Ayr, vous découvrirez un site spectaculaire au sommet d’une falaise, ancienne demeure du marquis d’Ailsa. Vous rêvez de vivre dans Downton Abbey ? C’est l’occasion ou jamais.
