Unwind in the seclusion of SQLArran cottage, set amongst the beautiful scenery at Lochranza, the most northerly village on Isle of Arran and home to one of Arran’s two whisky distilleries. A traditional two-storey cottage with thick stone walls, and situated close to the distillery, SQLArran Cottage is cosy and welcoming with fantastic sea views over Lochranza Bay. Lochranza sits at the northern end of the island of Arran, sheltered by hills, with Lochranza Castle sitting on a shingle spit into the loch. The village is built around the loch and has a large population of red deer, as well as golden eagles, seals, and otters. There are many attractions, including the Isle of Arran Distillery and an 18-hole golf course. There is a ferry terminus that allows quick access to the stunning west of Scotland via Claonaig, Kintyre. Amenities include a post office and seafood restaurant, which is renowned for excellent food, and a hotel with bar and walking trails. The whisky distillery has a café, excellent gift shop and regular tours. You can venture south to the busier villages of Brodick and Lamlash with plenty of added options to enjoy.
Brodick, the main town on the island, has two largish supermarkets and a full range of professional services, cafés, restaurants and shops. Arran could almost be Scotland in miniature! There are stunning mountains, forests, beaches and glens to discover, visit and explore, ideal for someone looking for an active holiday. You can cycle round the island in a day, enjoy a walk-up Goat Fell, the island’s biggest mountain with spectacular views from the top, walk a section of the Arran Coastal Way, or there are beautiful golf courses if you like to take things a little more slowly. Wherever you go, you are surrounded by Arran’s breath-taking scenery. The wildlife on Arran is abundant, and you may just catch a glimpse of otters, eagles, basking sharks and porpoises, but you will most definitely see seal colonies and so many species of birds. There’s plenty of history at Brodick Castle, the ancient seat of power, or Lochranza Castle, with its underground prison. Arran is also really well known for its local produce, so it’s a great chance to enjoy the local cheese, beer and whisky. Travel to Arran is via a Caledonian MacBrayne ferry. Prestwick International Airport is 16 miles to the south of Ardrossan, with Glasgow International Airport 24 miles east of Ardrossan. You can also travel from Tarbert in Kintyre to Lochranza, at the north end of Arran, which takes 30 minutes. Lochranza is a half hour drive from Brodick. There are no shops or supermarkets in Lochranza.
