Thank you Ellisland House Hotel for providing a perfect venue for our School reunion. All the waiting staff were friendly and helpful,keeping glasses topped up and food delivered to the correct person, mostly without us realising they were there. The food was also of a high standard and piping hot. The function room was spacious providing us with plenty of... More

I attended a school reunion at the Ellisland Hotel, Ayr. The food was wonderful and the staff were hugely accommodating of 34 rather noisy ladies!! We were fortunate enough to have the exclusive use of the conservatory which was wonderful. A few of the ladies stayed the night and were delighted with their accommodation. Would definately visit again.

I have eaten here many times over the years and the food is always very good. We went on Saturday evening for my Mum's 86th birthday. Everyone enjoyed the evening and were very complimentary of the food. The only thing I would say was that initially the service seemed rushed. We had only just sat down and not had the... More

My first visit and certainly not my last. Cullen Skink was the best I've ever tasted, followed by Trio of Fish which was cooked to perfection. Mum's banana chicken was also amazing - I had to have a taste. Great surroundings, and staff were first class with their prompt and friendly service. I can't wait till my next visit.

Cullen skink was fantastic, not a single bone in sight. Main courses well presented and delicious, liver though was a bit chewy in parts. Quick efficient service despite the very young staff. Only criticism is that our table was right in flow of traffic from kitchen and right beside ordering till, so was a bit draughty with constant waiting staff... More

Couldn't fault the food, enjoyable from 'starter to sweet'. Cullen Skink was the best I have ever tasted, the beef bourguignon mouth wateringly tender, the lemon cheesecake, with raspberry, brandy snap dishes and vanilla icecream deliciously luxurious. The only critiscism, on arrival the entrance was a little chaotic, waiting for a table meant getting in the way of the ultra... More

Can you guess that we loved staying here? Such a great hotel, incredibly friendly staff who were doing a great job looking after guests. We had a suite under the eaves so there was a sofa bed for our 3 year old daughter and a massive bed for us in the other room. Dinner was excellent, the wine list well... More
