Unique and fitting stay/experience on gorgeous Arran! Friendly/helpful hosts.

We loved our stay here. The kitchen is properly stocked to cater comfortably for 10 (and seat 10 comfortably both in and outside) and there is a second large fridge if the cottage is rented at the same time. Lovely quality bedlinen. As expected in Scotland in July midges, horseflies and ticks were out in force - you just need to keep on top of them. The mosquito screens on the bedroom windows were very welcome as we visited at a particularly hot time and could sleep then with the windows wide open.The views and sunsets were spectacular and the house is utterly peaceful. You'd need to keep a good eye on younger children in the garden as there are lots of steps and different levels and a burn but our lot (11, 13 and 15) loved the nooks and crannies (with hammocks) and the games barn. The direct trail to the beach is challenging but there is the option of a longer gentler route down the track.Jenny and James, our hosts, were very informative and helpful and the house lists were extremely detailed and thorough.A really lovely holiday let. We were sad to leave and I'm sure will visit again. There is so much to do and see on this beautiful island.

The Banlicken Farmhouse on Arran was a great location for our family vacation. Off the beaten path, it offers amazing views, serenity, and the space for an entire family to spread out for quiet time. We’d encourage families looking for the complete Arran experience to consider Banlicken!

We had a lovely time at Banlicken. It has a peaceful, remote and special feel to it.
The accommodation adds to this and the rooms have a feeling of being lived in and special. The kitchen in particular is a great space for a group meal and we spent most evenings there. A lovely stay .
