Three bedroom cottage with wheelchair accessible ground floor bedroom and shower/bathroom. Far reaching sea and valley views. Lovely patio for late afternoon sun and wonderful sunsets.

Perfect for our first visit to Isle of Arran. The house was clean and cosy and spacious enough for our family of 5 and a dog!

Second visit to these cottages, first stay in the Hayshed.
Loved everything about the cottage, clean, extremely well equipped and comfortable.
Jim and Kate are friendly, welcoming and there if needed.
Ideal for visiting places around the Island.
Views of the sea from cottage, lovely first thing in the morning whilst having breakfast.
We saw lots of wildlife around the Island and will definitely be back again in one of the cottages.
Thanks also for welcome gifts.

We stayed for the second time at Hayshed and already planning our next visit! Very comfortable and well equipped. We enjoyed the views from the dining table. The kids enjoyed the outdoor space!

A very well presented cottage which was equipped with everything you could want.
Bedrooms all spacious and comfortable. Having two toilets was great.
Plenty of parking and great views when sitting outside at the picnic bench.
Great well equipped kitchen and big dining table with wonderful views.
The only downside for me was the seating in the lounge area.
But overall a fabulous location . Would be happy to stay again

Spent a glorious week in this property, great location for exploring the whole island. Great beaches, distilleries and restaurants nearby, the Lag Hotel particularly good. Scenery breathtaking. Very clean and comfortable with accessible bathroom and bedroom downstairs. Hosts were very helpful, kind and discreet. Will definitely stay here again.

Located on the quiet SW coast of Arran this was a cosy hideaway. A short walk through fields leads you down to the shore where seals bask on the rocks. It’s not far by car from Blackwaterfoot where you can get supplies and a meal at the hotel. In the opposite direction is the Lagg Distillery where apart from whisky you can get a cafe meal - just a little further on is the Lagg Inn which has a friendly atmosphere and great food.
Myself and my husband spent four cosy nights at Hayshed - it can easily take a family group of six. Everything you need for a stay was provided as well as some lovely Arran goodies. There was plenty of hot water in the forms of showers or a bath for after a long bike ride or a walk up in the hills. Then you could watch the lovely sunsets over the Sound looking towards Mull of Kintyre before retiring to the wonderfully comfortable beds.
Our host Jim went out of his way to help accommodate our e-bikes in a bike shed. Many thanks for our lovely stay!

Thank you Jools for your very positive and thoughtful review. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay in our peaceful and beautiful corner of the island. I am now looking at permanent options for bike storage here - thanks very much for sharing your insights and experience on that!
