    No trip to Largs would be complete without trying an Ice cream from Nardinis or having a fish supper (Scottish way of saying Fish & chips!).

    • The Fish Works - Fish and Chip shop that has won multiple awards

    • Tinto Tapas – Traditional Spanish Tapas, small and cosy setting

    • Allegria Eatery – Modern and elegant Italian Restaurant

    • The Room – Stylish venue featuring a large eclectic world menu from Scottish to Mexican

  • Islands

    Largs is the perfect destination for getting out and exploring some of the beautiful west coast islands.

    The ferry sails from Largs to the picturesque Isle of Cumbrae. This island is relatively small making it idea for all ages to cycle round. Bikes can be hired on the island or easily taken across on the ferry.

    Approx 25 mins down the coast is the ferry to Arran. With a Castle, distillery, caves and walks, Arran makes for an action packed day trip.

    Up the coast is the ferry to the Isle of Bute. It is a compact island and has an extraordinarily varied landscape. From rolling hills, heather covered moorland to beautiful sandy beaches. You will also find magnificent Mount Stuart House located on the Isle of Bute.
