Set in the heart of Brodick, the bustling main village on the beautiful Isle of Arran, this lovely property offers fresh and cheerful accommodation for up to eight guests. The cottage is perfect for a larger family or a small group of friends looking for a delightful retreat with spectacular sea and mountain views. The accommodation is all on one level and overlooks the stunning Brodick Bay with its delightful beach. Although close to the village, the property is set a little way back which helps enhance its quiet and secluded atmosphere. Brodick has a range of amenities, shops and great places to eat, and makes a fantastic base for anyone looking to explore this wonderful island in the Firth of Clyde which is famous for its ancient history, impressive mountains and bountiful wildlife. Brodick also offers a range of activities including cycling, golf, mountain biking, archery and paragliding. Reached via a ferry from the historic harbour town of Ardrossan, the island makes a wonderful spot for a holiday for all the family.

Decorated in a light, neutral and soothing style throughout, this lovely, bright and welcoming property features spacious living areas, cosy bedrooms and a choice of bathrooms. Simply but charmingly furnished, the emphasis is on space, enabling eight guests to gather comfortably to enjoy a fantastic holiday in idyllic surroundings.

Stepping into this light, airy and welcoming holiday home, you will find the fresh and tastefully furnished lounge. This is a lovely space to relax in, with a TV, a choice of comfortable sofas and a large bay window with a beautiful view. Exploring further, the stylish open-plan kitchen/diner is an ideal space to prepare and share a favourite family meal. Along the hallway there are three charming and cosy bedrooms: two delightful double rooms and a twin room with additional bunk beds – this room sleeps four guests in total. You will also find an attractive bathroom complete with a shower over the bath.

This inviting and restful cottage is set within tranquil, mature and well-stocked gardens which feature a number of fruit trees. The gardens are enclosed and sheltered, with the front garden offering a fantastic view across the bay and towards the mainland. You can relax on the patio with a morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening. A large shed is available for storing bikes, golf clubs and other equipment.

A convenient location with great views. Poor lighting at the rear of property when using steps & locating house key / safe. Warm and spacious inside ( just 2 of us ) however, the property was in general, shabby & the bathroom needs some TLC. Plenty of serviceable kitchen equipment .

I booked the house for a long weekend with four girlfriends. I have been to Arran many times but even so was taken aback by the breathtaking view from the lounge and bedrooms. The house was spotless and everything essential was provided (including washing up items and salt and pepper - see earlier review).

This was a great cottage, very well equipped and in easy reach of the village. A nice, quiet location with no parking problems. Lots of walks direct from the doorstep. Just a couple of things for other visitors. Be aware that, if like me you are allergic to feathers, there are a lot of down filled cushions and bedding. Also, and it's not a complainRead moret as the shops are so close, nothing is provided so you need to bring/buy everything including salt and pepper. Overall though, a nice place to stay. Hide
