Annique Armstrong, VisitScotland Regional Director, said: “This exciting new e-book builds on the success of VisitScotland’s Spirit of Scotland global campaign, helping raise the profile and reputation of East Ayrshire as a fantastic place to visit, live and work in.

“This is a great asset for VisitScotland, East Ayrshire and local businesses to showcase the rich offering, hidden gems and local stories of the region to visitors from across Scotland and beyond.

“With rich history, breath-taking natural landscapes and mouth-watering culinary delights, East Ayrshire offers something to suit all tastes. We hope this new e-book, will inspire people to discover East Ayrshire’s gems for themselves.”

Julie Sloan, East Ayrshire Council Tourism Development Officer, said: “With so many brilliant attractions and fantastic things to do, it was a hard task deciding what to include in Undiscovered Gems. There is so much to choose from! We hope it inspires readers and encourages visitors to explore some of our lesser-known, but equally exciting, ‘gems’. East Ayrshire offers something to suit all tastes and we look forward to welcoming even more people to our region on the back of this excellent new e-book.”
