Whin Cottage
Whin Cottage is a delightfully upgraded detached farmhouse, set in countryside above the small hamlet of Sliddery on the south west coast of Arran. It is south facing with views to the hills, sea, and Ailsa Craig. The cottage is surrounded by a lawned garden with patio and outdoor furniture. There are adjoining outbuildings providing laundry facilities and plenty of space for storage of bike, golf or other equipment. Our local beach is a 15 minute walk from the door.
The open plan living area is cosy and light, with a multi fuel stove. Games, books and table tennis table, also a DVD player are all provided for after dark entertainment. The cottage has a hand built fitted kitchen, an oil fired Rayburn for cooking and hot water, with microwave and gas hob to supplement. A newly built conservatory provides dining with the wildlife. The bathroom has an electric shower over the bath, radiator and a wall mounted fan heater.
The cottage, which is double glazed throughout, can sleep 5/6 in three bedrooms: one single, one double, and one family room (double plus single). Electric heating throughout.
Local shop/PO/tearoom and hotel/restaurant/pub can be found about 2 miles away in Lagg. Golf, tennis, fishing and horse riding are available at nearby Blackwaterfoot, where the Kinloch Hotel also offers indoor swimming, sauna, squash and snooker.
Climbing and walking challenges can be found all over the island, from Goatfell and the mountains of the north to the hills ,beaches and ancient sites of the south. Arran is full of opportunities for both on and off- road cycling along designated trails of different levels. Quiet bays nearby offer sights of seals, sea birds and on occasion dolphins.
Whin Cottage is an ideal base from which to cycle, walk, enjoy the abundant wildlife, tour ancient historical sites or just soak up the beauty and peace of the countryside.
