No-one ever looks back and fondly remembers the day they got to the bottom of the in-tray.
Make some real memories with today’s Big Deal for an overnight stay on the gorgeous Ayrshire coast.
Golfers’ paradise
Handily located at just 30 miles from Glasgow, the Marine Hotel, Troon has long been one of the gems of the Ayrshire coast.
Purpose built in 1894, the hotel was given four AA stars in 1912 and has maintained that rating ever since – the only Scottish hotel to have done so.
It’s particularly popular with golfers who love the fact that its Truin Restaurant overlooks the 18th hole of the Royal Troon course.
At the last count, there were some 39 other golf courses nearby.
Relaxing stay
Available seven days a week, this tranquil Big Deal at the Marine Hotel has two options.
Option one is for an overnight stay for two in a double or twin room with a two course dinner, cocktail, full Scottish breakfast and use of leisure facilities.
The second option adds a 55 minute Elemis massage each.
Seasonal dishes
A two course dinner from the main menu in Truin Restaurant is included.
Devoted to keeping things fresh and locally sourced, the kitchen serves seasonally inspired menus using local ingredients.
As well as overlooking the Royal Troon, the dining room also has views to Arran – perfect for a clear, moonlit night.
Leisure facilities
As we mentioned, the deal includes full use of the spa’s soothing facilities including the gym, heated indoor pool, sauna, steam room, Jacuzzi and solarium.
Of course, you can also book in to the hotel’s Beauty Rooms to indulge in a spa treatment. Spa treatments are in addition to the offer and will be charged accordingly.
See and do
There is no shortage of fun things to do in the area. There are numerous golf courses within easy reach not to mention the Burns National Heritage Park and Culzean Castle.
Ayr Racecourse is another popular destination.
Happy guests
The Marine Hotel in Troon has long been a hit with customers. Edited for length, this is what recent visitors had to say on TripAdvisor:
‘Great location and great service. This hotel is located on the eighteenth fairway of Royal Troon and I was fortunate enough to have a fairway (and ocean) view… Great staff, nice pub, and large rooms. While the rooms are probably due for a renovation sometime soon, I’d stay there again in a heartbeat…’
‘I’ve stayed at the Marine a few times and it is one of my favourites. I agree with other reviewers that the furniture and soft furnishings could do with an update but the hotel is spotless and very comfortable. If you are a golfer the setting is amazing, if you are a non-golfer it’s still pretty spectacular… We enjoyed afternoon tea, dinner, bed and breakfast, all of which were excellent. The pool area is also excellent. The Marine’s biggest draw however, is the staff. They are wonderful…’
‘My wife and I visited the hotel this weekend to celebrate our first wedding anniversary… From the moment we arrived we were treated brilliantly by the helpful and courteous staff… The meal we had at the hotel restaurant was to die for… Again, the staff serving in the restaurant were so pleasant and helpful. We’ve completely fallen in love with the Marine and it will be a place we continue to visit in the future…’
Summer getaway
With validity stretching until the end of August, this offer could be used for a relaxing summer staycation.
Whether you want to fit in some golf; fancy a romantic getaway or simply need a refreshing change of scene, this Big Deal is a great way to make some memories with your nearest and dearest.
