Holidaying in Scotland and Ayrshire article

Scotland is an established tourist destination, with tourism responsible for around 200,000 jobs mainly in service sector and around £4 billion being spent per year by the visitors. The main bulk of tourists are from the UK, 24% are from the US, 9% from Germany, 8% from France, 7% from Canada and 6% from Australia. These overseas residents spent a combined £806 million compared to £3.7 billion from the UK in 2002.
Scotland is a popular destination as it is seen as a clean, unspoilt country, with beautiful scenery, home to a complex history and lots of historic sites. Many tourists are drawn to the culture of Scotland and the many castles, battlegrounds, museums and ruins that are there.
The cities of Glasgow and Edinburgh are being seen as cosmopolitan and are in turn drawing more tourists to Scotland, with the main tourist season being from April to October.
In addition to these factors, the national tourist agency, VisitScotland, have deployed a strategy of niche marketing, aimed at exploiting Scotland's strengths in golf, fishing and food and drink tourism. Another increasingly popular reason for tourism to Scotland - especially by those from North America - is genealogy, with many visitors coming to Scotland to explore their family and ancestral roots.
A lot of tourists who don't come to Scotland for the cities are coming to visit the beautiful countryside, and many of these people decide to camp instead of stay in more traditional accommodation. One area that is popular with Campers is Ayrshire, a region in the south west of Scotland.

Ayshire is among the most agriculturally fertile regions in Scotland. Along the coasts, fields of Potatoes are grown using a seaweed based fertiliser. The region is also known for its pork, root vegetables, cattle and summer berries.
In terms of tourism, Ayrshire is one of Scotland's most popular tourist destinations for families or couples, especially when it comes to camping. The area offers beautiful waters and clean beaches on the firth of Clyde.
A lot of couples come to stay on a caravan site in Scotland, Turnberry holiday park is a popular choice, as it has a breathtaking view of the island Ailsa Craig and its bird Sanctuary.
