There is so much to see and do, locally and further afield that you just have to visit LARGS.  Take a brisk walk, leisurely stroll or cycle, along the banks of the River Clyde, on our beautiful seaside promenade which stretches the full length of Largs. There are plenty of colourful benches to rest on and take in the wonderful scenery and unspoiled views towards the islands of Cumbrae, Bute, and Arran. .

From the prom you can access:- two play parks, two putting greens, a boating pond, the Vikingar! Centre (swimming pool, soft play, gym, theater & Viking Exhibition Centre), ice cream kiosks, skateboard park, large outdoor play park for small children, the Pencil monument (monument to the Battle of Largs against the invading Vikings in 1263) and finally, the Largs Yacht Haven/Marina (cafe, restaurant & shops)

For the sports enthusiast there are two golf courses, 3 bowling greens, an indoor tenpin bowling alley, hill walking, cycling, skateboarding, swimming, gym, sailing, windsurfing, diving, fresh water & sea angling, and horse riding. Inverclyde International Sports Centre for indoor activities and competitions.

Kelburn Country Centre, just outside Largs is a great day out for the whole family. Fabulous walks, breathtaking views, adventure playground and the famous Secret Forest. Kelburn Castle is the current home of Lord Glasgow and with its beautifully maintained gardens and some of the oldest trees in Britain is worth a visit.

The island of Cumbrae is a 10 min ferry trip and offers safe cycling for the whole family and boasts a Country & Western Festival. Wee Cumbrae (the tiny island adjacent to Cumbrae) can be reached by a power boat ride, taking in the amazing wildlife in and around the River Clyde. The larger islands of Arran & Bute are also well worth visiting.

Largs is a great base to tour Scotland and many more places can be visited within a day’s trip.  Isle of Bute, and Isle of Arran, Glasgow, Ayr, Loch Lomond, Edinburgh, and Stirling, - all no more than 1½ hours drive away

Haste ye back!
