About us
The Abbotsford Hotel has a rich history as a long-standing symbol of hospitality. This iconic establishment was originally constructed in 1916 as private residence and transitioned into the Abbotsford in 1966. An extensive remodel was completed in 2024 and blends modern amenities with the hotel’s original charm and character, creating a unique and inviting atmosphere. The iconic 16 bedroom boutique hotel, with bar, restaurant and function room, has won multiple awards under Southern Ayr which we are extremely proud of.
