Stay in the bustling coastal village of Brodick and discover the best of the Isle of Arran's attractions. This spacious, cosy, end-terrace stone cottage is perfect to host two guests.

This charming end-of-terrace cottage is the perfect coastal retreat on the wonderful Isle of Arran. Offering a couple or solo traveller the best of both coast and country living, this lovely stone-built home is located on the outskirts of the bustling harbour town of Brodick and gives easy access to the island's gorgeous beaches and spectacular scenery.

The pretty facade of this cottage is a welcoming sight after a day of fun and adventure. Inside, contemporary finishes are well executed, with a cosy, homely feel throughout.

Step into the open-plan living area and discover a sociable space to spend time with loved ones. Sit back and relax on the comfortable sofa seating while the chef of the day prepares a delicious meal in the well-equipped kitchen. Dine together at the breakfast bar whilst you plan the upcoming activities. A stylish modern shower room can also be found on the ground floor alongside a handy utility room with a washer/dryer to spruce up an adventurer's muddy clothes.

At the end of the day, climb the winding wooden staircase to where a light and airy bedroom awaits. With countryside views and a plush double bed, a good night’s sleep will be had by all in this quiet semi-rural location.

Outside, the stone-walled patio’s BBQ, chimenea, and garden furniture create the perfect private space to dine alfresco, and there's an expansive shared lawn to laze upon at the front of the property.

The Isle of Arran is a special and unique place with a rugged mountainous heart and an undulating coastline lined with pretty harbour villages and bustling market towns. Conveniently located on the edge of Brodick, the town’s sandy beach and thriving centre are less than a mile from your door.

The village boasts plenty of restaurants, charming tearooms and gift shops, as well as convenience stores for stocking up and cooking at home. Treat yourself to a pamper at the luxury spa, or head to the nearby golf course for a game to remember in this spectacular setting. Alternatively, visit the historic Brodick Castle and its beautiful gardens.

Arran is only 20 miles long by 10 miles wide yet somehow manages to pack in a huge variation in landscape. From windswept mountain peaks to beautiful beaches and rambling forests, the island is a walker’s paradise, and you don't have to travel far to join some fantastic footpaths. Try hiking up Goatfell, 4.5 miles away, or travel 8 miles across the island to see the Machrie Standing Stones. For an expedition to encircle the entire island, the Arran Coastal Way is a 65-mile seaside hiking trail passing beautiful beaches, mysterious caves, dramatic boulder fields and ancient stone circles.

Although it is well named the Wee Cottage, amazing use has been made of the space available. Fittings and equipment have been planned extremely well and the shower is exceptional. Situated less than 1 mile from the terminal and 30 yards from bus stops means a car is not essential. The grounds and gardens which front the row of cottages are very welRead morel maintained. Hide

Lovely cottage in really great location. Effective use of layout to get most out of interior. Backyard is a sun trap. Really quiet setting. Really well situated for easy walking into Brodick along road or coastal path

This is a great cottage to stay, within a short walk into the centre of Brodick and in the opposite direction is the castle and Goatfell. The cottage is really comfortable, well equipped and has a nice area out the back that catches the evening sunshine. This is the second time I have stayed here and plan to return.
