Great Central location and fantastic staff. Ideal for somewhere to rest if you're over.

The mattresses were unsupportive, and generally the apartment feels tired: it's the little things like not having a shelf in the bathroom or any towel rail

Good value, it was great to have the wee kitchen in the apartment at a good price and excellent location

Nothing to dislike.

Brilliant location and value for money.

The flat was not as clean as we would have liked. There was some dust a bit everywhere, especially in the corners (and it looked like it had been there for a while). The kitchen was also not super clean, especially inside the drawers/cabinets. I would recommend a deep cleaning of the whole apartment more often. The WiFi didn't work at all, but for us it was not a big problem. Overall, the building is a bit old and it would need some renovation and a good layer of fresh paint, but it was fine to stay for one night.

The house is located just a few minutes away from the harbour, with a beautiful view on the beach. We had the ground floor apartment, which was very big and comfortable for two people. I would recommend the place for a short stay in Brodick.

No soundproofing on the door meaning I was woken up at 1:30am by a really rowdy loud group in the reception area right outside my door that meant I couldn’t get back to sleep 😞 Otherwise it would have been a 9 instead of a 7.

Room was really well appointed, cosy & comfortable. Plus sea view!

For the price no complaints. Not the most up-to-date but everything worked fine.

Good value apartment - bigger than expected. Very convenient location for buses, shops and ferry. Check-in and out straightforward and was shown around the apartment on arrival. I was at the back and top of the building but still had views along to the ferry port and distant mainland Ayrshire beyond, as well as to the hills above Glen Rosa.

A lovely place to stay, and what a view of the bay and goat fell

Need to bring own toiletries although we did have some washing up liquid and hand wash left by previous guests. Would be good to have some cleaning facilities inside/for the loo.

Very convenient and central location in centre of Brodick, very close to ferry terminal. Great view of mountains Great for a budget last minute trip (like ours) Compact apartment with well equipped kitchen. Plenty heaters to keep you warm and cosy.

The beds and sofa were a bit worn out and not the most comfortable.

Very clean, nice layout, had everything we needed.

Location was ideal. Property was warm with beautiful views along the front.

One window grate in the bedroom would not shut and so we could hear the wind at night, but this was mostly only due to the weather being so crazy.

Our second time staying at The Shorehouse. We love it for its convenient location being in Brodick and how laid back the owners are. Keys are left out on the desk with your name and floor/room number, making it easy to quickly drop off bags in room and get back out to explore Arran. We love that it is more of an apartment than a hotel room, very convenient for making dinner after a day of walking/hiking. There is also a comfy sofa and TV, which come in handy for dark evenings in if you're staying in the darker months like we have done the past three years. Due to extreme weather our ferry was cancelled the day before we were supposed to leave and the owners were really helpful, informing us of what they knew and allowing us to continue to occupy the room past check-out on the day of while we waited to hear if we could get an evening ferry (we did end up leaving that evening luckily) and in case we needed to stay another night or more. Would highly recommend for couples and solo travellers.

More of an improvement rather than a dislike, is the bedroom next to the bathroom, the mattress wasn’t as comfy as the one in the bedroom next to the living room. Also if we were staying longer a bath would have been amazing as we were travelling with young children.

Plenty of parking space. Close to the beach. Close to ferry. The bedroom in the cottage closest to the living room was really comfy. Some cleaning products were left, which was very handy. Lots of space inside the cottage. That dogs are allowed. Budget friendly property, great value for money.

The shower wasn't as powerful as it should be.

A great location with welcoming staff and lovely hounds. It was a five minute walk from the ferry and all bus routes which was great as our car booking on Calmac hadn't worked! The kitchen was small but had a full cooker, fridge-freezer, kettle, microwave etc. There's a large Coop two minutes away so we didn't need to eat out every day. It was lovely having a sea view and watching the changing weather. The apartment had been painted this year and was looking good. We even had six beds for four of us, so we could spread out. If we ever come back to Arran I would happily stay at the Shorehouse again. Many thanks Jim.

Perfect location, all I needed, comfy bed and lovely and warm.

Window vent stuck open so got very cold! Bathroom light was flickering too, not dealbreakers but worth bringing additional layers.

Great view of the mountains from the room. Very cosy and host was very pleasant and knowledgeable.
