With four bedrooms sleeping up to seven guests, this cottage is ideally suited for larger families or groups of friends seeking a seaside base from which to explore the natural beauty of the Isle of Arran. Set in a fantastic spot on the shoreline, take the lead with a game of ball chase on the beach and a doggy paddle in the clear water. Stroll the half-mile to the pretty village of Lamlash for a drink in one of the dog-friendly inns, or to feast on fish and chips sat looking out over the bay.
Overlooking the bay with views across to Holy Isle, your inviting holiday home has a bright and airy feel, with rooms decorated in a palette of cool tones. Tails will wag at the spacious open-plan interior, perfect for socialising and relaxation. Cook up a storm in the stylish kitchen and share delicious dinners around the large, centrally positioned, dining table. After a busy day of exploration, unwind in the comfortable lounge area or get competitive in the pool room where your hound can bark you to victory. Taking the stairs to the first floor, you will find the four restful bedrooms, two doubles, a twin and a single, along with the family bathroom. Stepping outside, there are two expansive lawns where your pup can stretch their paws while you sip a glass of wine and watch the boats bobbing on Lamlash Bay.
Sniff out the standing stones and ancient Iron Age hill fort on a hike through Glenrickard (2 miles) where woodland trails lead to panoramic views across to Holy Isle. Find out about the diverse marine life that inhabits the waters surrounding the island at the dog-friendly Arran Octopus Centre (1 mile), where you can feed sea creatures in the marine tank or take part in a shore scramble or seal spotting activity.
