The Westin Turnberry is a luxury hotel is on Ayrshire's Atlantic coast, in the middle of 800 acres of private land. As a five star resort, and host to the 2009 Open, Turnberry has unrivalled sporting, leisure and business facilities, as well as top-notch standards of service.

The facilities

The Westin Turnberry undoubtedly draws most of its guests with its two championship golf courses (The Ailsa and The Kintyre); however, there's plenty to occupy you if golf isn't your bag. Pamper-queens will love the luxury hotel's spa, which offers a full range of E'SPA holistic treatments including facials, body wraps and hot stone massages. There's also a pool, sauna and steam rooms, as well as a gym for the extra-angelic.

The luxury hotel is great for outdoorsy types. Horse riding, shooting, falconry, salmon fishing, mountain biking and walking tours can all be arranged. And, after a day outside, there's nothing better than rewarding yourself with a meal at one of Turnberry's two restaurants. The formal restaurant in the main building serves Modern Scottish cuisine, and the more relaxed Tappie Toorie clubhouse has an eclectic European-influenced menu. Round your evening off at the luxury hotel's comfortable and generously stocked whisky bar.

The rooms

The luxury hotel's 219 newly renovated rooms are grand, clean and comfortable with more than a helping of country-house chintzy chic. Rooms come with satellite TV (plus pay movie channel) and high speed internet access.
