The name Largs originated from the Scottish Gaelic word meaning ‘the slopes’, and this gorgeous coastal town has been inhabited since the Neolithic era (a very, very long time ago). If you love to explore, this place will give you great alternatives to the usual things to do in Greenock, Scotland. From Haylie Chambered Tomb in Douglas Park to Largs Bay Beach, you’ll surely find something in Largs that suits your speed. Don’t forget to drop by the graffiti castle, also known as Kelburn Castle and Estate, which is located just outside the town. This quaint town has more to offer, from delectable Scottish food to water sports and breathtaking nature. Whatever you plan to do, be sure you book your stay in one of these best Airbnb vacation rentals in Largs, UK.
