About this listing

Just a short crossing from the mainland, yet a world away from the everyday, Benview Cottage is not simply a place to stay — it is a sanctuary to restore, reconnect, and immerse yourself in the rare beauty of one of Scotland’s loveliest islands.

Arran is a place where you can find a little bit of everything you’d ever want from a Scottish Island: mountains, lowlands, rocky bays, beaches, iconic wildlife, castles, stone circles, distilleries, golf courses and a range of activities to fill as much time as you have. Easy to get to from either Troon or Ardrossan which are less than an hour’s drive from Glasgow.

The Cottage has carefully constructed interiors combining understated aesthetic with inviting comfort — soft furnishings, natural textures and a wood-burning stove which offers a warm, cosy atmosphere designed to feel welcoming in every season.

Discreetly nestled within a captivating landscape the property offers a retreat with a special sense of peace and privacy. Surrounded by countryside being restored to a natural state, with numerous walks on the doorstep, through native woodland, wetland and meadows and within easy reach of standing stones, an iron-age fort and spectacular waterfall, this is a perfect place for discovery and relaxation.

Benview Cottage comprises an entrance hall with space for outdoor footwear and clothing, sitting room with wood burning stove and flat screen TV, a fully equipped kitchen, bathroom with walk-in ‘rain shower’ and utility room with dishwasher, washing machine & dryer. Upstairs is an open airy bedroom complete with king-size bed and large built-in wardrobe.

Dog-friendly with an enclosed garden, high-quality WiFi throughout and access to a dedicated EV charging unit and a short drive away from local amenities: shops, restaurants and pub.

Linen, towels, robes, slippers, toiletries, washing powder, kitchen basics, dog bedding, bowls and towels are all provided.
