Situation Troon is one of Scotland’s finest towns and world famous for the Royal Troon Golf Course which was founded in 1878 and has hosted the British Open on numerous occasions. Developed through the 18th century, Troon took its name from a rocky promontory known as ’The Troon‘. and the developing interest in sea bathing led William Fullerton of Fullerton to offer feus for the building of villas and in Ambitious town plans were drawn up by the Duke of Portland, while the coming of the Glasgow, Paisley and Ayr railway encouraged further growth in the mid 19th century. Troon railway station was rebuilt in 1892 by master architect James Miller, and the town continued to establish itself as a superior resort for holiday makers drawn to the sandy beaches and the quality of its golf.

Southwood is 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 world famous golf courses. Southwood 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, Mar Hall 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 Craigholme and Belmont High School.

Royal Troon last hosted the British Open golf championship in 2016 and Prestwick Golf Club is the original home of the Open. Troon marina offers a sheltered harbour and the waters around Troon are renowned for some of the best racing waters in Europe.
