The House of Machrie on Dougarie Estate, Isle of Arran

Set on a large working farm on the magical Island of Arran, known as ‘Scotland in miniature’ for its diverse landscape, this magnificent holiday home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy this exceptional location in great comfort with stunning sea views across the Kilbrannan Sound to the Mull of Kintyre. Sleeping up to 14 guests, the spacious farmhouse is ideal for families or friends who want to celebrate special occasions in idyllic surroundings.

If your group is larger, Machrie Farm Cottage sleeping a further 5 is just 100 yards away - please enquire for more details.

Cook up a feast in the smart kitchen which has everything needed to create inventive dishes, plus the convenience of 3 fridge/freezers and 2 dishwashers. Enjoy suppers in the dining room and settle into the elegant drawing room for relaxed evenings, perhaps with a singsong or wee dram by the cosy open fire. Head into the second living room for games, books or TV and films. Sip morning coffee and enjoy a quiet moment in the bright sunlit conservatory, offering a glorious countryside view towards the sea - bound to put a spring in your step for the day. By evening, relax and marvel at the changing light and colours as the sun sets over the island horizon.

As night falls, you’ll find 7 stylish and cosy bedrooms (5 en suite) with deep mattresses, stylish bathrooms and underfloor heating, made for blissful slumber.

Step into the porch and pop coats in the handy cloakroom. There’s a separate pantry, store, utility and laundry room outside plus a heated boot room leading out to a large yard.

Discover the barn games room with table tennis, table football and billiards - sure to bring out a competitive spirit. For a more relaxed pace, wander to the front of the property where you can enjoy the tranquility of the enclosed garden with a seated barbecue area for al fresco dining. 4-legged friends can lounge in the boot room and conservatory or join you on long country walks.

At the appropriate time of year full sporting packages are available including river, loch and sea fishing, along with lobster potting - please enquire. Golf passes to our 9 hole course may also be included on request.
