Ayrshire and the West Coast of Scotland has always been a popular place to live, but in recent months and coming off the back of a national lockdown, the desire to be surrounded by rolling countryside and open green expanses in one direction and to have the famous Scottish coast with its plush beaches and stunning vistas in the other direction has never been stronger.
There are other reasons as well that make Ayrshire a popular location for people to plant their roots; for families there is no shortage of recreational pursuits and a plethora of national parks to hand, and schooling is as good as anywhere you will find in Scotland. Happy with commuting? Well, Glasgow is only 30 minutes away. For downsizers, there are few better ways to enjoy your retirement than waking up to the beautiful landscape of the North Sea.
There’s also the question of ‘bang for your buck’…well it’s no secret the Ayrshire benefits from the Manhattan effect. Price per square foot in Ayrshire compared to Glasgow is pretty much night and day – yes, you’re further out from the city and commuting becomes the norm, but house prices are much more palatable and your budget can go a lot further!
