West Kilbride based travel agency LAH Travel has recently celebrated its fifth birthday with a gala evening at Seamill Hydro Hotel.

A hundred guests, ranging from the agency’s very first customers to its regulars, were invited to raise a glass to toast the company’s success, and the evening was hosted by former BBC sports presenter Bill McFarlan.

“It’s been a fabulous five years,” said 38-year-old Managing Director Linda Hill. “The people of Ayrshire have been tremendously loyal to me, and I’ve sent them all over the world from Mauritius to Malta’’.

LAH Travel offer fantastic deals with all the major tour operators and cruise companies. “And,” says Linda, “we also have a Foreign Exchange Bureau offering commission free currency so whatever your travel needs– LAH Travel is your first choice.”

Linda is delighted to announce a fantastic new online booking system, which lets you source the best deals on the Internet. “For those who prefer the personal touch,” says Linda, “we also offer ‘Travel By Appointment’– letting you discuss your holiday needs with your personal travel advisor from the comfort of your own home.”

"North Ayrshire Council Business Development Department have been involved pretty much since the start of the business 5 years ago, and through the 5 years have supported me and the business not only financially but with valuable advice too. One of the recent grants I received helped me as a small business to be able to afford our online booking system which, in an age where everyone is booking online, has been superb."
