Ayr Flower Show is signposted from the A77 but for directions to Rozelle Estate, home of the show, please click the middle box below

Rozelle Estate, Monument Road, home of the Ayr Flower Show, is a short drive or bus ride from the centre of the bustling town of Ayr and is within walking distance of the birth place of Robert Burns, Scotland's National Bard.The house and adjoining wooded parkland was gifted to the Royal Burgh of Ayr by Lt. Cdr. John Hamilton RN for cultural and recreational purposes in 1968. The mansion house was built in 1760 in the style of Robert Adam and later in the 19th century became one of the grand dwellings of the district as the home of Lady Cathcart. Today, the Goudie and Maclaurin collections of paintings and contemporary art are housed within the main building and surrounding buildings house facilities for local artists and a programme of workshops and education.

Blooming Marvellous...
The great Floral Marquee displays the magnificent trade displays from the professional nurseries plus the return of the local authority displays. Two other large marquees are filled with competitive displays from the amateurs.

In the Floral Art Marquee the colour, scent, shape and form provides a fantastic floral feast. The British Begonia Championships are unsurpassed for their quality and quantity and are rightly regarded as the finest display at any British show.

Scotland's Summer Spectacular...
Sit back and enjoy the band, with an ice cream or a glass of your favourite refreshment to cool you in the summer sunshine -sounds just the ticket. Or try a spot of retail therapy at the many varied stands selling everything from garden furniture to greenhouses, pot plants to pruning shears.

The Craft Marquee and the sundries stands, indoor and outdoor provide interest, opportunities and choice. In the Food Pantry Marquee there is literally something for every taste.

Something for the kids...
Ayr Flower Show has the largest Children's Flower Show in Scotland, with miniature gardens and paintings to handcrafts and animals made of fruit or vegetables.
