WHERE IS "SHELLDUN"?

"Shelldun" is a large detached corner bungalow situated to the north of Troon in a quiet residential area, only 100 yards from Barassie Beach with its views over the Firth of Clyde to the Isle of Arran, some 15 miles offshore. It is conveniently located for all road, rail, air and sea links to the West Coast of Scotland and the many places of interest and golf courses that the area has to offer the visitor.

Our nearest golf course, only a long putt away, is Kilmarnock/Barassie. Glasgow Gailes and Western Gailes are a short 5 minutes north on the A78 by car.


Royal Troon is at the opposite side of Troon only 10 minutes by car. Troon's municipal courses - Fullarton, Darley and Lochgreen are only 5 minutes away by car. Ayr Belleisle and Girvan courses are only a short drive away by car. Turnberry is south of Ayr along the coast road and easily reached by car. Loch Lomond is only one hour by car north.

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT "SHELLDUN"

Our home was named after our 2 Labradors Shelley & Duncan, who are sadly no longer with us.

The resident Labrador now in charge is "Rosie" - click here for photograph.
