About this property
Idylic and peaceful location
Whether you re looking for a one night business stopover, a couple of nights to attend a wedding at the Brig O Doon, or a one or two week self catering holiday break, Doonbank offers an exclusive, flexible and private accommodation base for you to relax and unwind.
Doonbank Bothy is a beautifully presented two storey, one bedroomed detached house. It is very spacious, quiet and peaceful and set within four and a half acres of Doonbank Cottage s secluded private woodland garden.
The bothy sleeps two adults. We also have a free cot for under 2s and (on request) a separate single fold-a-way bed for an under 10 year old (additional fee). As well as having access to the woodland garden and river, it also has it s own private back garden to relax in.
Situated in the picturesque village of historic Alloway in Ayrshire, a 10 minute walk to the world famous Brig O Doon, Burns National Heritage Centre, the Brig O Doon Hotel and Burns Cottage, and on the edge of the main town of Ayr on the west coast of Scotland, the Bothy has glorious views over the idyllic River Doon, which runs for half a mile as the property s eastern boundary, offering excellent opportunities for bird watching and riverside walks after a busy day.
One (medium sized) dog / pet welcome.
