Location

Westwinds is located in an exclusive enclave of houses laid out by the Duke of Portland’s plans between 1890 and 1914 and became popular with merchants due to the easy access to Glasgow by rail and its famed golf courses. Southwood, Troon is similar in many ways to developments of the same era at North Berwick, Gullane or indeed Sunningdale in Berkshire. Troon lies approximately 8 miles north of Ayr and has a bustling town centre and a wide variety of shops, supermarkets, renowned restaurants and excellent boutique shopping. Prestwick Airport is approximately 3 miles away and Glasgow is easily commutable by rail from Troon railway station (journey time approximately 42 minutes) or by car via the A77 / M77. Troon and Ayr provide excellent primary and secondary schooling with the local secondary school, Marr College, and the private Wellington school in Ayr, each having good reputations for both academic and sporting achievements. There is an additional wide range of private schools in the southside of Glasgow including Hutchesons’ Grammar School and Belmont High School. Royal Troon is due to host the British Open golf championship for the 9th time this year and Prestwick Golf Club is the original home of the Open.
