Ayr Burgh Council purchased
the Estate in 1926 for
£25,000, it has been opened
to the public free of charge
since.
Next to the Mansion is a
Pergola with Tropical Plants
& Walled Garden, a top spot
for Wedding Photos.
Work to convert the other side
of the Estate, to the Belleisle
and Seafield golf courses, began
in 1927. Belleisle Mansion House
was then run as a Hotel
overlooking the Golf Courses.
The Hotel was being redesigned
and extended by a private company
with the work expected to be
completed in 2016. This work was
delayed when almost complete,
then in 2019, the Mansion caught
fire while repair work on the
roof was taking place, leaving
only the shell.
The Council has since bought
the Mansion back, they are now
looking for companies to restore
the Mansion so it can be used
once again as a top Wedding
Hotel.
