Hamilton Cottages Hamilton House Shiskine KA27 8EW
Located only 15 minutes from Brodick via The String Road, Hamilton Cottages offer you a true island escape. Our 3 stylish cottages are equipped with everything you need for a relaxing and enjoyable break. All our cottages have large French doors looking on to the gardens so you can embrace nature and watch the wildlife (including our red squirrels) whilst enjoying your morning coffee. The family games room with pool table, table tennis and table football is a real draw for kids of all ages, perfect for those rainy days or competitive families! Enjoy exploring our 1.5 acres of woodland with a stream running through it and meet our free range chickens which like to wander around the place. Only 5 minutes drive from the wonderfully scenic harbour village of Blackwaterfoot with it's stunning sandy beach (the best on the island in our opinion!), artisan bakery, fantastic golf course and several places to eat and drink we truly think the phrase 'West is Best' applies to the Shiskine Valley! We are also only a few minutes drive from some of the most popular walks and attractions on Arran. Kings Caves, Machrie Moor Standing Stones, Bellevue Farm Tours, Arran Alpacas and The Old Byre are all within 10 minutes drive.

Quirky Island Fact
#20 - Arran has Scotland's First No Take Zone
The Community of Arran Seabed Trust (COAST) is a local charity and was established in 1995 by local divers, Howard Wood and Don McNeish, who had noticed the depletion of species on the seabed. The No Take Zone at the north end of Lamlash, was eventually created, after much campaigning, in 2008, and COAST were instrumental in then establishing the Marine Protected Area (MPA) which covers the coast around the south of Arran.
