Brian

A very nice quiet place to stay in Whiting Bay for an extended family holiday. Easy access to play areas and beach close by. James responded very quickly to questions and provided helpful instructions. The house is an easy house to live in.

Linda

A spacious and airy, very well equipped bungalow with comfortable beds, spotless on arrival. It enjoys a central position in Whiting Bay near good restaurants and not far from the excellent Bay Stores where you can enjoy a coffee and watch the world go by. The bungalow’s position, up a fairly steep road leading off the main road, affords wonderful sea views from the generous balcony and kitchen.
We found Marie and James to be responsive hosts who dealt with queries quickly.
Would definitely recommend this property to family and friends.

Linda

We loved our stay. The house has lots of space. Our particular favourite space was the sun room, we enjoyed the view of the sea usually sitting with a glass of wine in the evening. Whiting Bay is a lovely quiet place and the house is a short walk to the beach. We ate at both the Shurig and simply Thai which are both easily walkable from the house. Lamlash is a short drive away where there are a few more places to eat. The location was peaceful and our children absolutely loved it. Would recommend.

Owen

We really enjoyed our stay. The house is spacious, with beautiful views across the Clyde that are enchanting at any time of day and in any weather. The kitchen is exceptionally well equipped, and the three bedrooms are all a good size.

Julian

We had a great week in Whiting Bay. James was a perfect host, very responsive and helpful (thanks for the fruit, wine and local tips!). The house was lovely, clean and baby friendly. Would happily stay again.

Pip

We had a wonderful stay. The views are absolutely stunning and one of the highlights of the house. It was very comfortable, exceptionally well equipped, and had everything we needed.
It's a great base for exploring Arran, with everywhere on the island just a short drive away. Whiting Bay is a lovely village, easy walking distance to a few nice places to eat and enjoy a drink. There are also lots of small beaches nearby and some fantastic coastal and hill walks. We had a fantastic time and would definitely stay here again.

Barbara

What a wonderful home. Comfortable, a well stocked kitchen, very clean and stunning views. The library full of books and games for all ages was a welcome surprise. We had such a peaceful and fun time here. It felt like a well cared for and loved home and it was very easy to settle in for the week. Host was really helpful whenever we reached out. Thank you for a lovely holiday.

Kat

The bungalow is such a lovely space. It is beautifully decorated with a lovely lived in, but uncluttered feel. The views from the house are stunning.

Suzanne

We've had a lovely week here in Arran with our family. The house is beautiful and was one of the best we've stayed in and so well equipped, and very clean. Would definitely stay here again when we next visit our favourite place, Isle of Arran
