Great place to stay in Troon. Has everything you need and nothing you don't (Stuart)
Pros:

Booked for my boyfriend Stuart Murray He said food at the Anchorage was excellent. He had an dinner time snack and breakfast both excellent.

Cons:

Again Stuart said that the single bedroom was very warm even with the radiator turned off and room had no opening window. Could have done with an extra shelf in the bathroom and some door hooks but bed was very comfortable.

The best adventure we've had. Perfect views and perfect hosts.
Pros:

My daughter and I stayed in the small double room which was perfect for us, the facilities were grand- mattress superb and everything clean and well ordered. The TV signal was a bit dodgy on the first night but the amazing Johnny was already on the case and supplied a boost- the historical thick walls aren't compatible with modern tech. We were there for adventure not TV but if it's your thing thanks to Johnny it now works a treat.
The breakfast is absolutely sublime- I wish I had tried the kippers but the full scottish was too good to refuse. Incidentally, our taxi driver who was local told me The Anchorage is the best place to eat locally. We had an evening meal too which was amazing.
The two best aspects of the hotel have to be Harley and Shelley- advocates for Troon, bright, positive and passionate about hospitality. We cannot wait to come back.
We also dined at Scotts- nice but preferred The Anchorage. The Wee Hurrie- best mushy peas ever!
We travelled via ferry to Isle of Arran- breathtaking.

Cons:

Not an issue for us but management have given full disclosure that some areas are 'tired' but this is merely some cosmetic issues. The hotel is absolutely spotless.

Will come again
Pros:

The staff ran the place like a well oiled machine. Although the room was small (which we did book) the bed was very very comfortable, a great nights sleep.
