Rooms

The resort has a wide range of stylish, contemporary accommodation available, from Standard Rooms in the House Hotel to family-friendly Executive Rooms in the Spa Resort, plus self-catering lodges and retreats for more space and privacy.

In the Spa Resort, even the Standard Rooms are suitable for families as they sleep up to five; opt for an Executive Room for a bit more space and privacy – and a separate kids’ room. If you’re looking to self-cater or travelling in a large group, the lodges are a great option and can sleep up to eight people. For complete luxury, choose Cedar Cottage, which comes with its own outdoor bath.

Eat

The resort’s three restaurants provide excellent choice, from seafood and grills in Brambles to Scottish Tapas in Eighteen69. The relaxed Cruize brasserie offers a mix of traditional and modern dishes, plus a great kids’ menu. Room service is also available.

Self-caterers are welcome to use the dining facilities, too – though you’ll find that the kitchen facilities provided are perfect for whipping up a quick meal in your own space.

Activities

There is a huge amount to do at Auchrannie Resort, both on and off site. The Playbarn offers three-tiered soft-play for under tens, plus an outdoor park and cafe. Then there’s the two leisure centres, both of which have a swimming pool, sauna and steam rooms.

The on-site activity centre can arrange a number of fantastic activities, including Segway tours, gorge walking and mountain biking. Or, if you’d prefer something a little more sedate, head to the spa for some R&R.

Accessibility

Fully adapted accessible rooms with wet-room bathrooms are available and there is also an accessible two-bedroom lodge.

Location & local area

Where is it and how do you get there?

By Air

Glasgow Prestick Airport is just 17 miles away, and Glasgow International Market is 25 miles away. Car hire is available at both.

By Rail

Ardrossan Harbour Railway Station is right by the terminal for ferries to Arran; trains run here from Glasgow Central.

By Sea

Travelling to Auchrannie Resort involves crossing by ferry from Ardrossan in North Ayrshire; it takes 45 minutes to reach the harbour from central Glasgow, and the crossing itself is 55 minutes. The ferry terminal in Brodick is just a mile away from the resort.

Arran is small enough that you can drive around it in a day – but it has such a range of landscapes that it could easily keep you occupied for weeks.
