Apple tree lodge is a lovely getaway just outside Ayr, tucked away down a country lane. You really feel you are secluded and it is very peaceful but still near amenities and restaurants. The lodge was spotless, beautifully decorated and so well looked after. Jim communicated lots with us and was close by in case of any need. The lodge is comfy, cosy and very relaxing, hot tub, lookout point and firepit all make it a luxurious stay. Thank you very much!
