Caladh Beag means “little haven (beach or harbour)”, offering shelter and a welcome escape on the stunning Isle of Arran. Caladh Beag is a three-bedroom, detached, traditional two-storey cottage which sits in the centre of the village of Lochranza, the most northerly village on the island and arguably, the most picturesque. There are stunning views across the village green towards the loch and the 13th century Lochranza Castle, with the Kilbrannan Sound and Mull of Kintyre beyond.

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms in total, a double and twin, both with fantastic views over the bay, and a single room, all served by a family bathroom.
Outside, there is a small, enclosed garden to the front with garden furniture as well as a larger private garden across the road, which is gated and enclosed offering more space for children and pets to let off steam. There is private parking for one car, and extra parking close by.
Lochranza sits at the northern end of the island of Arran, sheltered by the surrounding hills with the focal point of Lochranza Castle, sitting on a shingle spit into the loch. The village is built around the lochside and has many attractions, including one of the Isle of Arran Distilleries, a large population of red deer, golden eagles, seals, otters, and red squirrels, and an 18-hole golf course. There is a ferry terminus that allows quick access to the stunning west of Scotland via Claonaig, Kintyre. Amenities include a visiting post office, and a restaurant which is renowned for excellent food.
Brodick, the main town on the island, has two largish supermarkets and a full range of professional services, cafés, restaurants and shops. Arran has a bit of everything, in fact it could almost be Scotland in miniature! There are stunning mountains, forests, beaches and glens to discover, visit and explore. Ideal for active holidays, you can cycle round the island in a day, enjoy a walk-up Goat Fell, the island’s biggest mountain with spectacular views from the top, walk a section of the Arran Coastal Way, or there are beautiful golf courses if you like to take things a little more slowly. Wherever you go, you are surrounded by Arran’s breathtaking scenery. The wildlife on Arran is abundant, and you may just catch a glimpse of otters, eagles, basking sharks, porpoises but you will most definitely see seal colonies and so many species of birds. There’s plenty of history, at Brodick Castle, the ancient seat of power, or Lochranza Castle, with its underground prison. Arran is also well known for its local produce, so it’s a great chance to enjoy the local cheese, beer, whisky, and craft botanical drinks.
Travel to Arran is via a Caledonian MacBrayne ferry. The main, most popular ferry is from Ardrossan in Ayrshire to Brodick on the island, which takes 55 minutes. Vehicle reservations are recommended. Ardrossan has a mainline rail station, with trains to Glasgow that connect with the ferry times and is approximately thirty miles from Glasgow city centre.
