This is also peak season, though, especially during the school summer holidays in July and August. May and September/October are both also good alternatives: there will be fewer crowds compared to summer and the weather is typicallly still mild. Winters don’t get too cold but you may find closed businesses.

  • Maybole is on the Glasgow South Western railway line and has regular connections to Ayr, Glasgow and Carlisle.
