10 The Apostles
10 The Apostles is in Catacol, on the west coast of Arran. It's one of a row of twelve cottages right by the sea, the ones you see in all the pictures. The view from the front is straight out over the water to Kintyre.
It sleeps five. Three bedrooms, one bathroom. It's a 4 Star rating, so it's comfortable and well looked after. It's an old cottage, so the rooms are cosy and the layout is what it is. The garden is enclosed, which is handy.
The beach is pebbles and it's about a minute's walk. You'll see seals out there, and sometimes dolphins. Red deer come down into the village quite often, and if you're lucky you might spot an otter or a golden eagle up the glen.
You can start a few walks right from the door. There's a path up the burn towards Loch Tanna, or you can walk over the hill to Lochranza on the old Postman's Path. The bus between Lochranza and Blackwaterfoot stops in the village too, so you can walk one way and get the bus back.
Lochranza is a few miles up the road. That's where the distillery is, and the castle ruins. Brodick is on the other side of the island, maybe a 40 minute drive, for the castle and gardens there. The whole island is good for walking or cycling. If you're here for the rare trees, Glen Diomhan is up behind the village. It's a National Nature Reserve.
Inside, it's got what you'd need: woodburning stove, dishwasher, washing machine, WiFi. Bedding and towels are included. You can bring up to two dogs. The parking is on the street outside the cottage.
