The routes cross a lot of farmland, therefore be aware that during spring the lambing and calving season is in full flow.

Accommodation

Autumn leaves in Currarie Glen (Day 1)

The Ayrshire and Arran Coastal paths are well served with accommodation including various hotels, B&Bs, hostels and campsites. Naturally, however, there are a few areas that prove to be exceptions. There is no accommodation at all in Glenapp and very little after Ballantrae until you reach Girvan, apart from some off-route options that would require you to make other travel arrangements, as well as adding extra time into your schedule. Bearing that in mind, this book has been written so that each day finishes where there is somewhere to stay. The further north you go on the mainland the more there is a marked increase in your options. Arran is also very well served for overnight stays although places to stay between Lochranza and Blackwaterfoot are sparse. Accommodation should be booked well in advance, especially in summer. There is a basic accommodation list in Appendix B but for up-to-date details please contact the Ayrshire and Arran Tourist Board www.ayrshire-arran.com 0845 22 55 121.
