Largs is a bustling seaside town on the Firth of Clyde in North Ayrshire about 33 miles from Glasgow. It has a pier where in the Summer Months the Paddle Steamer Waverley calls in on its summer cruises. The town is quite famous for the Battle of Largs 1263 between the Norwegian and Scottish armies and is proud of the historic link with the Vikings.
The Ferry to Great Cumbrae is also in Largs which also makes an ideal day out, the bus at the other side works in conjunction with the ferry and takes you to the island's only town Millport.
