Gogo Vale provides sumptuous accommodation on one floor and is well suited for a range of guests including families, walkers, cyclists and particularly those seeking a peaceful setting to enjoy the magnificent uninterrupted views to the Isles of Cumbrae, Arran and beyond.
It is a simply wonderful location for a peaceful time, but within walking distance to the bustling and picturesque seaside town of Largs for access to hotels, restaurants including Nardini's Ice Cream and Fish & Chip restaurant, shops, golf courses, bowling greens, tennis courts, indoor sports facilities, Largs Marina and bus/rail links. Walkers can enjoy gentle strolls along the promenade to take in the sea views and for ferry access to the Isle of Cumbae; or embark on more challenging treks as listed in “walk the highlands” or along the Ayrshire Coastal Path. Cyclists have similar gentle and testing options along the Sustrans network. Tourists can also go further afield by public transport to Glasgow which is within 1 hour by train. Whilst Shetland may be well known for it’s Viking connections Largs has fame of it’s own from a battle in 1263 when a landing party of Vikings where sent “homewards to think again”. This heritage is remembered by the annual Viking Festival and also in a multi-media Viking-themed attraction at Vikingar. Family days out can also be taken to Kelburn Castle and Country Park.
Outdoor activities are well catered for with a great range of leisure opportunities close by including two golf courses, putting, bowls, play parks and a swimming pool sports complex together with near by Kelburn Castle for exciting family days out.. Water sports are prominent with excellent sailing on the Firth of Clyde from Largs itself and also nearby Inverkip and Prestwick.
