  • Well-equipped holiday park among Ayr's 30+ castles
  • Indoor pool, solarium, wildlife trails and kids' clubs for ages 4-15
  • Entertainment venue, bar-restaurant and fish and chip shop
Hmmm, here’s a compelling conundrum for someone at Sundrum Castle Holiday Park: with more than 30 cracking castles tucked into the landscape around Ayr, which on earth should you visit first? And even if you stay on site, it’s decisions, decisions thanks to the packed programme of entertainment and activities at all hours of the day. Ditherers, you have been warned. Daytime choices include a splash about on the flume at the indoor pool, a relaxing session in the solarium, 10-pin bowling, a round of crazy golf, a deerstalking stroll around the wildlife trails, or a game of five-a-side or basketball. For kids, there’s a mind-boggling selection of fun sessions in the kids’ clubs for ages four to 15. As night falls, take your pick of competitions, live music, cabaret, dancing and comedy in the on-site entertainment venue. As for food, the Tam O’Shanter bar-restaurant has a comprehensive set of food and drink options including freshly brewed Costa Coffee, or you could just grab a bite from the fish and chip shop. So, if you’re after an unspoilt country setting close to fab beaches and some of Scotland’s top tourist attractions, Sundrum Castle Holiday Park may well be the perfect spot. (Phew, at least that's one decision made…)

Liked: The pool was good to go to in the morning some staff were really friendly and polite .

Disliked: As soon as we arrived we got told our pitch was 14 so my partner took the caravan round and it was right next to kids playground toilets and showers were a good walk to get to as when booked we asked for to near showers and toilets as iam disabled but never got it . Next first night we decided to go round and see what entertainment was like it was good till 10.55 when we just got a round of refreshment s from bar and security guy came up and put ever body out which we didn’t get our drinks that were not cheap and as we were leaving there was another few people with kids that he swore at in front of kids and kids were upset then he went on to let people in and locked doors. Staff lick in !! We went round to reception first thing in morning to complain and was told they would deal with it never heard another word about it which was awful and also told that there was tv signal and internet when booking had nothing and the excuse for that was where they put us there wasn’t any because the trees so sorry but never in my life have I ever experienced a fully paid holiday and fuel to get there and back to it being our worse holiday and we travel a lot will never be back it’s been the worst holiday ever

Liked: Park was small

Disliked: Booked a pitch with awning and paid extra. However they allocated the only site with no awning space. Went to reception and they did change it after a while but frustrating. Facilities great

Liked: Our pitch was ideal plant of room on the hardstanding to sit outside on. The ladies shower area was always clean and well looked after. Was a lovely quite site. A short 1/2 mile walk took us into the main road where we got a bus into Ayr this saved us mobbing the MoHo

Disliked: Hubby said the gents shower area was filthy, he tried to use it at different times to make sure it wasnt just a one off, sadly this was t the case.

Local attractions

How to pick from the 30 or so castles close to Sundrum Castle Holiday Park? For sheer magnitude plus dramatic ocean views, try Culzean Castle, which sits in 600 acres a few miles south of Ayr. Those with kids in tow should head for Kelburn Castle, with its secret forest walkways, crocodile swamp, petting zoo and play barn; keen golfers meanwhile will appreciate the course at Rowallan Castle, which has an actual 19th hole (as well as the more traditional variety). Treat yourselves to a day at the races in nearby Ayr, also great for shopping and beaches, and home to Pirate Pete’s, where you’ll find Scotland’s biggest indoor play area, as well as outdoor rides, a laser zone and a cute traditional seafront café. Other popular day trips include a trip across the water to the stunning Isle of Arran; a pilgrimage to the Burns National Heritage Park to visit the Bard’s cottage and the neighbouring museum, and a cuddle-filled day out at the Heads of Ayr Farm Park.
