Prestwick (near Glasgow) weekend? Troon, what do you think?

[RockingRosebud]

As we live near Stansted, was thinking of taking DH to Troon (golf) for the weekend. It is very near the coast, can anyone tell me if it is a coastline with a holiday type beach? Also is it a touristy area? What can we do DS8 and DD4 whilst DH plays golf?

Thanks

OOPS, please would you post on the other thread. Thanks.

Hi
We did exactly the same. No it's not a touristy area, but we did stay at the South Beach Hotel tel 012920312033 which was was fine. They gave us a ground floor suite of two rooms, one leading onto a patio amd a lovely travel cot, all for £87.

We stayed only one night on our way to Arran which is beautiful and with more fine golf courses. Tourist Information are quite helpful on things to do, our DS was only one when we stayed there last year.
