Located on the southern tip of the island, Loanmhor overlooks fields and countryside, yet is only 3 miles to the nearest village of Kildonan, which has a hotel serving food and drinks to the public.
Inside this stylish detached property, the spacious kitchen/dining room has plenty of room for everyone to dine together. The wood burner in the living room creates a cosy atmosphere for guests to relax, especially in those cooler months. A sun room at the back of the house provides additional space for guests to unwind in and it overlooks the garden and fields. It opens out onto a decked area, which is a lovely spot to enjoy the Arran sunshine with a glass of wine. Three of the bedrooms have an en-suite shower room, including the downstairs bedroom, which could benefit guests who may be less mobile.
Loanmhor is a great place to base an Arran holiday, with Kildonan offering a great beach where seals are frequently spotted and Whiting Bay just 6 miles away. Whiting Bay has a golf club, shops, restaurant and coffee shop along with a children’s play park on the beachside.
In the opposite direction, head to Blackwaterfoot via Lagg which has the new Arran Distillery, where guests can enjoy a ‘wee dram’ and some lunch in the café. Beach 3 miles. Shop 6 miles, pub and restaurant 3 miles.

Just back from a fabulous holiday here, the house and the garden are lovely.
Just back from a fabulous holiday here, the house and the garden are lovely. A great base on the South of the Island, a 15min drive to Whiting Bay. Excellent kitchen with large family dining table, comfortable living room with a stove for log fires. Bedrooms are all very well presented again with stunning views over the Firth of Clyde, the view directly looking at Ailsa Craig was just beautiful. The TV doesn’t work, I’d suggest bringing an hdmi cable to your own device to watch shows. The kids loved playing the Wii and the daily visit from the neighbouring chickens.
