Ballochmyle by Ardgowan Homes.  Surrounded on all sides by the gently rolling hills and fertile farmland of the Ayrshire countryside and with rugged coastline not far to the west, it is rare to find a location so close to perfection as Ballochmyle. The estate is recorded as far back as 1165 when King William the Lion granted land there to the Cistercian Monks of the Melrose abbey.

Ballochmyle is situated just on the outskirts of the small village that is Mauchline, 35 minutes commute to city centre Glasgow. This historic village was once home to Robert Burns and mentioned in one of his ballads, ‘The Bonnie Lass O’Ballochmyle’. Mauchline village was at the centre of activities between Scottish Royalists and the Covenanters, with a decisive battle being fought in 1648 that is still celebrated each May at the Holy Fair.

Ardgowan Homes may be a new name to house building, but the people behind it certainly are not. The development team behind the stunning Ballochmyle Estate has many years experience operating at the very top end of the UK property market.
