Leave everyday stress behind and sink into island life on Arran, surrounded by the splendour of nature. This handsome stone house is an ideal getaway for a large family or a group of friends, with all kinds of things to do within easy reach. Just 1 mile away lies Blackwaterfoot Beach that boasts marvellous views of the Mull of Kintyre. Blackwaterfoot is home to shops, a hotel bar and restaurant, all-weather tennis courts, and the celebrated 12-hole Shiskine golf course (1 mile). Local walks include The King’s Cave (2.5 miles) which was said to be the refuge of Robert the Bruce, and the Machrie Moor standing stones (4 miles) are also worth a visit for their commanding atmosphere. The fascinating Arran Heritage Museum is just 8.5 miles away, while Brodick Castle, where you can enjoy an interactive tour and take in the formal gardens, country park and adventure play area, is 11 miles away.


From original wooden floorboards to panelled doors and stained glass, this impressive property is full of fascinating traditional features. From the entrance hall, turn right into the lounge, where the focal point is a wood burner. Plenty of seating allows opportunities to stretch out with a good book, or stream a favourite movie on the Smart TV. To the other side of the hall is a dining room, with space for everyone to gather around a large table and enjoy sociable meals. There’s a smaller breakfast table in the kitchen, where you’ll also find an Aga complemented by an electric oven. The utility room contains laundry facilities as well as a freezer and a microwave, and there’s also a generous boot room, with masses of space to store your walking gear. Completing the ground floor is an impressive family bathroom, with a free-standing, roll-top bath and an ornamental fireplace. Take the stairs up to the first floor to discover the bedrooms – one king-size, one double, two singles and a bunk room – enjoying incredible views and furnished with quirky antiques. On this level there’s also a family shower room.

Extensive lawns at the back and front of the house allow for endless games in the fresh air, though be aware that there is quite a steep slope at the front. The property has ample parking space.
