General notes

The flat has been thoroughly insulated, with modern central heating for each room installed and tested in the last few months, with digital thermostat control in the hallway to ensure your continued comfort during your stay. The flat is fully double glazed, creating a warm, tranquil and draught-free environment.

The Building

Sandringham is a Victorian tenement apartment building of a very high standard and in excellent condition. Well-maintained by all its residents and well specified, the building boasts many original features including the Scottish-made stained glass adorning the landing (or close as we call it in Scotland)

Parking

There is ample parking space outside the building and round the corners from the entrance to the building. All parking within the vicinity is free and without restriction. In peak season and on holiday weekends it can be a little restricted but should still allow easy access.

Smoking

Sorry, smoking is not permitted within the Largs Holiday Home. Nor is it permitted within the stairwell outside the flat. If you smoke you will need to do so outside the outer front door of the flat. Sorry, leaning out the living room window does not count!

Children

Largs Holiday Home welcomes children of all ages. We have taken reasonable precautions to ensure the flat is child-safe.   There are no open fires, the windows have safety catches, there are open socket covers and the door to the landing is lockable. The two single beds in bedroom 2 are perfect for children from about 3 upwards and there is space for a travel cot. We can supply a foldable travel cot for a small additional fee. Please ask.

Pets

Sorry, we do not accept pets. For the wellbeing and health of all our guests, we need to ensure our home remains allergen free.

Access

To give you the great views across the Ayrshire coast and the tranquility of being away from street noise, it means our flat has to be up a few stairs. So, as long as you’re ok with climbing steps to the third floor to benefit from a fabulous sea view, then this flat is for you. Sorry, it’s a Victorian sandstone building, so there are no lifts, elevators or escalators! If you are not sure if your needs can be catered for, please drop us a line. We’ll be happy to help!
