"About Girvan"
Girvan is a small Scottish fishing town in South Ayrshire 60 miles south of Glasgow. It nestles snuggly in the hills around the mouth of the river Girvan commanding a view of Ailsa Craig, Arran, and the Mull of Kintyre. We are easily reached as Girvan is on the main road (A77) and rail links from Glasgow to Stranraer.
Nearby are the famous Turnberry hotel and golf course, while a little further north is the county town of Ayr itself. The folk festival takes place around the harbour and upper area of the town, the venues all within easy strolling distance of one another, in some cases just a matter of yards.
