An amazing, grand and still boutique hotel in the heart of the hamlet of Brodick. Our room was enormous, with even larger views. The staff was charming and helpful, from reception to the waitstaff at the rather excellent restaurant. I think this is the place to stay when in Arran. I will be back.

Everything about our stay at the Douglas was beyond our expectation. Friendly staff who went the extra mile to insure we were well taken care of during our time on the isle of Arran. Food was excellent. Our entire party of 9 (five rooms) all want to return again in the future.
