Holiday Accommodation on the Isle of Arran - South Yorkshire NARPO Member.

Posted on Saturday, 04 April 2009 07:21AM by Bob Simpson.

For information Rachel and I left Doncaster moving to our new
address on the 15th December 2008.
We have moved to Lamlash on the Isle of Arran, othe West
Coast Scotland. (Approx 30 miles from Glasgow as the crow flies)

The property was designed by ourselves and with a bed and
breakfast business in mind. We have now opened and our bookings
have been phenomenal considering we have not advertised.
Our web site (address shown below) is now up and running with a
very interesting Blog where Rachel lists and photographs all her
walks including climbing two of the mountains we have here.

Arran is known as Scotland in miniture having everything the whole
of Scotland has got on one island with a road 56 miles long and the
benefit of no roundabouts and no traffic lights. Golden eagles,
red squirrell, deer, seals, dolphin and the occasional shark can all
be seen  around Arran depending on season.

We have our own brewery and whisky distillery of which Arran 12
year old malt whisky was voted the best in the world in 2008.

Please pass on our regards to all narpo members and when you get
the opportunity inform them of our venture at such a beautiful location
and please view the web site to see if anyone would like to visit us.

Regards
