We were looked after really well and enjoyed our stay, great location and fantastic breakfast, would stay again.
Clean comfortable stay. Nice large bed, pillows. Good size fluffy towels. Good amount of complimentary tea/coffee and replenished. Good breakfast. Pleasant staff. Would happily stay again and recimmend it.
Amazing and friendly staff, great breakfast. Friendly piece of advice : ask for room 14 the very instant you make your reservation, you don't regret it.
Fabulous location overlooking the sea; wonderful views of the coast and hillsides from the room we were given ; very helpful and efficient staff, including advice on buying goods made on Arran; tasty food including great seafood selection.
Friendly and helpful staff. Food was excellent. Lots of choice for breakfast. Recommend surf and turf for evening meal. We stayed in single rooms which had everything we needed and were clean and priced competitively. Hotel is situated directly in front of the bay.
Great staff and excellent service! Lovely location
And good food!

We stayed one night. A small room but clean. We sat in the garden for a drink. Breakfast was good, we did not eat in the restaurant for our evening meal. Excellent position and we enjoyed a sunny afternoon so a bonus.
Looking out towards Holy Isle, this small hotel is a lovely place to stay when visiting Arran.
Staff were friendly and very helpful, food was excellent. The garden was perfect to relax in after a hilly round of golf! Highly recommended
We had the premier suite on the second floor overlooking Holy Isle Well worth every penny and the climb up the stairs.
Weather was superb allowing us to enjoy the gatden and the Tiki bar to the full.
Staff all pleasant, happy, smiley and efficient.
Scottish hospitality at its best.
