Far Horizons Holiday Cottages
Lighthouses, Ivy Cottage Farm Sliddery Isle of Arran KA27 8PB
At Far Horizons we have three characterful self-catering properties on the upper slopes of the lovely Corriecravie Valley with breath taking views over the sea to Kintyre and Antrim beyond, in the tranquil setting of rural south west Arran. All three cottages are owner managed and maintained, have fantastic sea and valley views, cosy wood burning stoves and all modern conveniences, including smart TV and WiFi. The Hayshed (dog friendly, sleeps 4 adults + 2 children under 10) has underfloor heating in the bathroom and in the recently completed kitchen / dining extension. The Hayshed also has many accessible features such as access ramp, wheelchair width doors, a downstairs double bedroom and a downstairs bathroom with wheelchair accessible shower. The Ploughmans Bothy (sleeps 4, dog friendly) and the Blacksmiths Bothy (sleeps 4, no pets) both have a spiral staircase to their upper floor double and twin bedrooms and provide a comfortable holiday base for couples or small families. From our home field, there is pedestrian access down a steep and rough track to the shore, with a breathtaking panorama of sea, land and sky, and the opportunity to see otters, seals and migratory birds along this rocky shoreline with its history of shipwreck. The sunsets are stunning, the storms are thrilling and at night the stars will take your breath away. Here at Far Horizons you will find comfort combined with rural peace, inspiring views, clean sea air - come and enjoy!

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.
