A travel agency will be opening a new branch in Prestwick next year.

Thorne Travel, an independent multi-award winning travel business, will be launching its new store in Prestwick in early 2024.

The six-time TTG Top 50 agency, which already has two stores in Kilwinning and Largs, said opening the new shop in Main Street would create at least six new jobs, for which Thorne will recruit locally. 

Owner and managing director, Shona Thorne, told TTG: “I have thought about opening a store in Prestwick for some time, it is a lovely town with a warm and hospitable atmosphere,” owner and managing director Shona Thorne told TTG exclusively.

“Our HR team is also about to start recruiting, and we look forward to welcoming customers and helping them find their dream holiday early in 2024.”

Thorne added there was no official date to open the agency’s third branch as the new store would require “significant renovation and modernisation”.
