Lamlash- Self catering accommodation with seaviews

Ragnar's Rest is set in the village of Lamlash and offers stunning seaviews across the bay towards Holy Isle. The accommodation has an open plan living/kitchen area with stairs leading to a double bedroom and shower room. The property has been newly renovated and has a well-equipped kitchen, log burning stove and excellent Wifi. The decking area offers uninterrupted seaviews to Holy Isle with Millhill Burn running past the property. This presents the unique combination of woodland and beach. Ragnar’s Rest is located in the Millhill area of Lamlash which has long standing links to the Vikings. In 1896, whilst digging the foundations of the house, a Viking sword and shield were found. The “shield boss” is the only remaining part of the shield and is presently in the Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh. We live in the adjoining main house and if needed can make ourselves available. We will usually be there to greet you and will be very happy to help with any questions or advice. We have lived in the house for many years and know the area well. From the driveway there is easy access to the beach and the amenities of Lamlash. The village boasts a number of outstanding pubs and restaurants offering the very best of Arran produce. There is a small supermarket and a number of speciality shops selling an array of handcrafted goods. At Lamlash Pier you can book a ferry to Holy Isle where the coastal walk affords stunning views of Arran and the Firth of Clyde. Eriskay ponies and Soay sheep freely roam the slopes amongst the abundant flora and fauna. Within walking distance of Ragnar’s Rest is Lamlash Golf Club where visitors are warmly welcomed. The course offers stunning views of the Clyde Estuary, Lamlash Bay and Holy Isle. Buses can be accessed at the top of the road for travel to the North or South of the island. Taxi services are also available. You are also able to hire a car in Brodick. The island is ideal for cycling and the off road forestry paths are a fun way to get off the beaten track. The Coastal Pathway is accessible from the other end of the village and leads to Kings' Cross which has strong Viking connections. Lamlash Bay is popular with kayakers and paddle boarders due to its sheltered location. A few locals are braving the elements and enjoying the health benefits of cold-water swimming. We will provide a large basket of seasoned logs for your personal use with a cost of £10 for each subsequent basket. We are happy to set or light the log burner for you and provide support if required.
