Golf at Turnberry was a secret treasured only by locals until railway companies began to develop Scotland's magnificent landscape into attractions that would lure travellers to the countryside and require a ride on their trains. The dream of escaping the bustling city for the high life inspired day-trippers, weeklong boarders and families to visit seaside resorts all over the UK. To capture this business, the South-Western Railway built its railroad line from Ayr to Girvan, and also built the Station Hotel at Turnberry. 

The hotel and resort opened in 1906, offering luxury rarely seen at the time. With electric lighting, central heating, hot and cold running water, and saltwater plunge baths, the Station Hotel offered a rare glimpse into a whole new way of living. Designed by talented young architect, James Miller, the hotel at Turnberry was grand, but intentionally unostentatious. The classic combination of white plasterwork and red pan tile roof is still part of the iconography of Turnberry today.

Inside, opulent appointments were specified throughout, and little expense was spared. Service was of an equally high standard, with teams of maids, butlers, cleaners, cooks, liverymen and boilermen comfortably outnumbering the guests.

And though it has been dramatically modernized, with the Trump organization spending over $200 million on upgrades and improvements since their purchase, guests at Turnberry today still stay in the same graceful building that early 20th century travelers did, and are attended to with the same pleasing service. A comfortable and remarkably lavish step back in time.
