The coastal town of Ardrossan is located in Ayrshire, 30 miles from Glasgow.
Historic harbour town
Ardrossan is a historic port town boasting sandy beaches with beautiful views over the Firth of Clyde. It lies on the north side of Irvine Bay between Irvine and Largs, on the north Ayrshire coast.
Shipbuilding was one of Ardrossan’s important industries in the 18th and 19th centuries, and today it is home to a ferry port with regular CalMac services to the Isle of Arran.
By the water
For sailing enthusiasts, the Clyde Marina offers a variety of facilities including 250 fully serviced berths, a toilet and shower block plus car parking. The marina is also home to Cecchini’s Italian Bar, Bistro and Restaurant which is glass-fronted and offers wonderful views.
The town’s two beaches, Ardrossan South Beach and Ardrossan North Shore, are perfect for coastal walks. South Beach is lined with attractive cafés and tearooms, and also boasts grassy areas, perfect for seaside picnics.
Helpful info
As the gateway to the Isle of Arran, Ardrossan makes for a great stop when travelling to or from the island. Eating options include the Lauriston Hotel and Restaurant and the Ardrossan Indoor Bowling Club, which serves meals and snacks throughout the day.
Three railway stations are found in Ardrossan, and they all connect to Glasgow. Bus services are also available via Stagecoach.
What a wonderful location! I loved the historical ruins and the waterfront area with the boats 👍
Thanks for your kind comments.
Love the old buildings, especially the ruins. We enjoy history and beautiful scenery!
What beautiful views. Mind you anywhere with the sea on its doorstep is my kind of place. Lovely video.
Aw aye, no bad wee day for it 😊 Huvnae been here in years! Fair enjoyed it guys 👌
Thank you for sharing !!! :)
I look at those mountains on Arran from the front of my house and the castle ruins from the rear and I love it, I have lived for extended periods in Amsterdam, London, Pari and Copenhagen but I have retired to the place of my happy childhood memories and I've never been happier, lovely to see all the positive comments and thanks to the makers, they got almost all the best shots😏
Wow, so beautiful city. Thank you for sharing your great video. Peace!
Thanks, just subscribed to your channel, you've a fine channel and content.
I really enjoy watching this video, it helps me to know more about Scotland. Thanks for sharing with us.
Interesting place ! Thank you for showing. Surely nice to roam in different seasons and different shades of light. Especially I like the maritime sequence of shots starting here 00:44
Nice Vlog I went to ardrossan too. I have watched a few of your videos and most I haven’t been to yet so hopefully I get my chance soon
Hi hope your keeping well. Water looked a bit on the bobbing side. Maybe leave a swim for another day. The Cal Mac ferry didn't look happy out their either lol. I feel sorry for Ardrossan a bit as I feel it should have more in it especially for tourists heading to Arran but I suppose the train is right at the ferry terminal and everybody piles off and straight onto Arran and Ardrossan never gets a look in with extra money. It needs some exciting tours or events to bring the people and keep them all along that part of the coastline. Thanks for some brilliant shots. Take care👍😁👍🏴🥾🥾
I agree with you about extra spending and more imagination needed for these former tourists hotshots. These towns need to reinvent themselves.
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment.
Ardrossan has received some funding from the Lottery Fund since this film was made and now has a new children's play park and 18 hole crazy golf course down at the beach. I retired here after living in many places around the country and in other parts of the world.
If you go to 0.13 seconds there is a restaurant called moka don't go to it it's bad
