This Isle of Arran family villa offers the best of all worlds, as it teases the eye and inspires the soul with showstopping views across Brodick Bay to Goatfell and the castle beyond. Sleeping eight people across four bedrooms, it is the ideal base for large families and groups of friends looking to enjoy the abundant country pursuits on offer whilst still enjoying access to lots of local facilities. From your morning pastries from the local bakery to afternoon strolls by the water to nights curled up by the woodburner, every moment of each day will be one to treasure forever.

The accommodation is just as attractive on the inside as it is inviting on the outside, this waterside self-catering home in the Isle of Arran welcomes you to enjoy the kind of holiday you’ll be talking about long after you leave. Boasting just the right amount of homeliness, modern conveniences, and luxurious comforts, starting and ending each day of your holiday here will be a pleasure. Beginning in the kitchen, a well-equipped space provides everything you could need and more for whipping up gastronomical masterpieces for all the clan from breakfast ‘til bedtime. Located down a small flight of stairs, the kitchen is also accompanied by a dining room, meaning you can give each meal the ceremony it deserves. Perfect for lazy mornings and rainy afternoons, a comfortable lounge comes complete with a woodburner and TV. Snuggle up with a book, boardgame or movie and zone out for a while, or huddle together with mugs of tea and laugh over shared anecdotes. A four-bedroom property, every member of your group is guaranteed somewhere comfortable to rest at the end of every day. As well as two super king-size bedrooms on the ground floor, you will also find two bedrooms upstairs: a double bedroom and a bedroom with bunk beds and cot, ideal for children. Slip between the crisp sheets and sink into a deep and easy sleep, dreaming about the promise of more adventures tomorrow.

Inviting guests to savour superb views over Brodick Bay from within, the outside of the property allows you to take another step closer to the wild surrounds. Take advantage of the sunshine in summer and take your lunch or dinner alfresco in the enclosed garden. Here, an outdoor table and chairs provide the perfect arena for full-blown feasts or amuse-bouches with ice-topped G&Ts. Of course, there is a whole host of activities right on your doorstep too and you can easily hop across the road to dabble your feet in the Firth of Clyde or admire the everchanging scenery.

The ferry port is a short 0.5-mile walk along the shoreline, offering day trips to the historic port town of Ardrossan, famous for sandy beaches and views over the Firth of Clyde. If you prefer a slower pace of life, settle down on Brodick Beach with a sumptuous ice cream to watch the boats go by.

Absolutely beautiful home, in a stunning location. It worked so well for us - 2 families sharing together, it had everything we needed and far more. We hadn't expected the wealth of board games and my daughter was so excited by the sundae dishes! Such a wonderful place to stay, will definitely be recommending it to friends and family.

The house was very comfortable with everything you would need. It's in a great location overlooking the bay and close to all the shops and restaurants in Brodick. Loved looking out every morning to see Goatfell from sitting room window, fantastic views. Sat out in garden at night to eat. Returning for another week in August.
