The Burlington was built as a Guest House in 1904, by a Mr Taylor, the enterprising local blacksmith, and has been a favourite base for generations of holidaymakers since that date.

This family-run hostelry offers a warm Scottish welcome and a comfortable environment in which to enjoy a relaxing break on the magical Isle of Arran, convenient to the Scottish heartlands, yet distant enough to ensure that work stays firmly on the back-burner.
 

Gardens and Patio

From the patio, enjoy the ever-changing world of the Bay, whether it be small puffers, yachts, large liners, frigates or submarines from the Holy Loch, or the last sea-going paddle-steamer, the Waverley.

Most spectacular of all are the natural attractions: the Holy Isle, the beach and all the wildlife of the island - seals, porpoises, the occasional basking shark, and the wonderfully varied seabirds.

An afternoon's relaxation on the Burlington patio captures the essence of "being".
