Located within one mile of Ayr Town Centre and a short stroll from Seafield Post Office and Ayr Beach Promenade, Creggan Bahn Court has been providing care to the local community for 25 years.
The history of the Creggan Bahn Court goes back to the 1870’s when the home was named St Andrew’s House and was occupied by a family when the home had 20 bedrooms from 1881. A lot has changed since then and when the home was purchased in 1997 and converted to a modern care home a new wing was added in 2013 and a second in 2019 to the home creating additional bedrooms, bespoke lounges, dining rooms and a garden patio area for residents to enjoy in the summer months.
