County Hotel
« on: Monday 14 August 06 19:22 BST (UK) »
Does anyone know the any information or the address of the County Hotel in Ayrshire? My Mother seems to remember it being near the coast but has lost the address. I can't find anything doing a general internet search or from the Yellow Pages.

Any information would be helpful.

Hi Amy,

There used to be a County Hotel in Wellington Square in Ayr, Ayrshire.  If that's any help.  The telephone number was 01292 263368.

It was near the sea.

Kind regards
Hoppity  :)

The County Hotel was indeed in Wellington Square, Ayr near the beach.  Sadly it closed a few years ago and is now flats. :)

I know, it's so sad. I saw one of the flats up for sale a little while ago but I would have loved to have a look around before it was sold as it used to belong to my mothers family.

I must say I do prefer how it looks today, although it would be nicer if it was still an hotel
