Belvedere

A fantastic weeks stay with a group exploring Arran every day. Alan is a great host, very attentive and chatty. 2 of us were in the self catering unit which is excellent. The breakfasts are fantastic, cooked to order and very fresh. Thanks again Alan and see you next hear!

Allan ensured we were well looked after during our stay. We enjoyed a hearty Scottish breakfast each morning (each individually made to suit everyone's preference) and an opportunity to chat and find out more about the island. Rooms were clean and we had a beautiful view from ours. Would recommend to friends and family.

What a great find. Allen is such a charming host. Nothing is too much trouble. Breakfast is great. Views are tremendous. We will definitely be back and thoroughly recommend as a place for a comfortable stay on your trip to Aran. Thank you Allen. Pete and Fran Kendall

Limited off-road parking, but I never had any problems parking on Alma Road. Allan not around when I arrived, but the check-in arrangements worked fine. Room 5, single: the private facilities (washbasin, toilet, bath, shower) are all next door. The room itself had tea/coffee facilities, and plenty of storage space. TV signal was sometimes intermittent; not the first time I've experienced this in Scotland. (There was also a shared guest lounge.) I like to use the laptop a *lot* on holiday (processing the day's photos, writing a diary); no desk in the room, but by moving the hospitality tray, I could work OK. Breakfast is the kind you pre-order (what you want, when you want it, presumably to cut down waste. A good choice of breakfasts, including vegetarian options, and Allan is a chatty host at breakfast time. There are also three lively small dogs; Allan did ask 'are you OK with them?' Payment on departure. I'm unlikely to come back to Arran, having seen what I want to see, but if I did, I'd be happy to come back here.

The Belvedere is very clean, comfortable and everything you could wish for at that price: which is very reasonable indeed. Allan is very friendly, attentive, and often goes out of his way to help guests. He's also very generous with breakfasts and extra late-night snacks. My room had one of the most comfortable single beds I've ever slept in. I met some grest people whilst I was there too. I highly recommend this b&b.

A lovely week at the Belvedere with host Allan. Exceptional hospitality, a 10 min walk from the ferry with many restaurants, shops, bus stops and beach walks at your fingertips. The room was warm and comfortable, the breakfast taste amazing with healthy portions. Allan is attentive yet unobtrusive. I felt right at home. My room had a lovely seating area with view of ocean, in addition there is access to living room with games, books and tv. Will be returning in the spring.
