    Born and bred in Girvan in the 60's and 70,s ---happy childhood days and it was great in the summer when the holiday makers came..like the guy said memories of the simple things, my favourites, the rowing boats, the beach pavilion , climbing the byne hill and dow hill for the views and the gardens filmed which were once an orchard full of apple trees

    It's a town with tremendous potential. Great people. Sadly let down by decades of political incompetence.

    Lived in Girvan for 4 years now and I absolutely love it. Yes, the high street has some empty shops but so does every other high street. Loads going on if you want to get involved. Beautiful beach, fabulous countryside. Local butchers, greengrocers, gift shops, original clothing shops. Lovely people. Don't knock it.

    Theres some nice walks over the hills. Awesome views. I think it needs a bypass for the heavy traffic though.
