What to do in Ayr with a 3 yr old?

Next week we're off to Sundrum Castle Monday to Friday. We're planning a trip to Heads of Ayr farm and Culzean Castle, but looking for something else to do.

Ideas for if the weather's shite as well might be good.

See, Sundrum Castle has a lot of the same stuff - swimming pool etc, but we're there for a few days and have to figure out a fair few things to do to keep him busy. hmm.

Re: What to do in Ayr with a 3 yr old?

Belleisle Park use to be a good place to go to when I was younger, dont know if its still the same now. Its a big park thats got animals and birds that you can see. Either that go into Ayr town center and nip down the the low green at the shore, theres a big play park for the wee one. Lots for him to do, arcades are close by aswell, then nip to the wellington for a fish supper before you go.
