Benview Golf Course Road Whiting Bay Isle of Arran KA27 8QT

A period property - built in the mid 1800s - the cottage faces south towards the forested hill of Torran Loisgte and ‘The Giant’s Graves’ (a prominent set of Neolithic chambered tombs) above Whiting Bay. It 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 washing machine & dryer. Upstairs is an open airy bedroom complete with king-size bed and large built-in wardrobe.​ A cosy but spacious place for two people, Benview Cottage combines heritage charm with thoughtful modern touches. Set within tranquil countryside and surrounded by walking paths, it’s a dog-friendly retreat where guests can relax by the fire, enjoy the private garden, and experience the peaceful rhythm of island life on Arran. Just a short drive from local shops, beaches, and scenic trails, it offers a perfect balance of seclusion and convenience — an inviting base for exploring or simply slowing down amidst nature

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.
