Greenhill is a wonderful place to stay and explore the glorious island of Arran from. The house was well equipped and very comfortable. There was lots of space for all the family and we all enjoyed the views into the garden and beyond. It is a quick easy walk into Blackwaterfoot (an opportunity to spot red squirrels!) which has useful shops, a great hotel with a bar and restaurant and a dramatic beach. We loved our stay and hope to go come back in the future.

Had a fantastic family holiday at Greenhill, lovely house in a great setting, everything you would need for a holiday. Went for a couple of meals at the Kinloch hotel and everyone enjoyed their dinner, lunch at the golf club, morning rolls at on a roll, everything was very tasty. Will hopefully be back soon.
