This will be brief - rooms ok but you can hear what's happening next door, food is excellent but it's a pity the staff don't know the basics of good service, on the weekend, later in the evening, you can enjoy the company of inebriated locals and if you wait long enough, you can enjoy the company of inebriated staff... more

Wildings is a small hotel/restaurant in Maidens - a small fishing village 15 miles south of Ayr. It is primarily a seafood restaaurant with approximately 8 rooms. We had stayed the previous year for our anniversary and really enjoyed the experience. We booked in again on a Saturday night for dinner, bed and breakfast. Check-in was nice enough but the... more

Wildings Restaurant is very popular and worth a visit. The hotel bedrooms have recently been completely refurbished to a very high standard and are most comfortable.

Wildings had finished its renovation only that day, and it showed - new flatscreen TVs didn't work, clever new electronic key thingy unreliable, etc, etc. But the rooms are lovely, the food (only had breakfast though the... more

I decided it was time to pay Wildings Hotel a visit to see for myself what all the fuss was about. After all, I have been recommending it on Tripadvisor for long enough! On arrival it looked like it might be closed as the Hotel is obviously having a major revamp. Thankfully the restaurant was fully open and once inside... more

Wildings was recommended to me by another TA poster. We were looking for somewhere to stay and have a nice meal before heading for the ferry at Cairnryan the next day. It was perfect! Hotel: when you look at the internet pictures of Maidens Wildings is just a big white box but when we got there first impressions were very... more
