The property

An exciting opportunity to obtain a successful, family-run campsite business (plus two cottages - one of which is vacant) An exciting opportunity has arisen to obtain a successful, family-run campsite business (plus two cottages) on the outskirts of Shiskine on the Isle of Arran. The campsite enjoys a central location on the west of the island, making it easy to explore the rest of Arran, with spectacular views of Machrie Standing Stones on Machrie Moor and across the Firth of Clyde to Kintyre. The Campsite Bridgend Campsite consists of 15 pitches with electric hook-ups (7 hard stands, 8 grass) on a gently sloping site, with facilities for motorhomes, caravans, and tents. The campsite is currently open all year round, including Christmas and New Year, allowing visitors to enjoy the beauty all the different seasons bring to the island. Additional facilities on the site include toilets, showers, and dishwashing cabins, an outdoor children's play area, WiFi, a chemical toilet disposal point, drinking water, and recycling and general waste facilities. Accounts are available for the campsite on request, and more information can be found at www.bridgendcampsitearran.com, including a blog with details of recent improvements that have been made to the site. The Cottages The cottages were originally two cottages and a workshop. They were then converted into stables. The current owners have turned them back into two cottages. They are situated on the edge of the site, with their rear gardens backing onto it. 2 Bridgend Cottages is on the left and you enter through the front door into a small hall area (with two useful built-in storage cupboards), flowing openly into the living accommodation. The open-plan kitchen, living and dining room offers space for both lounge and dining furniture and features French doors opening onto a decked terrace in the rear garden. The kitchen is neatly fitted to one corner and consists of classic cream cabinets and workspace, splashback tiling, and a selection of freestanding appliances. This could easily be on-site accommodation for someone to run site and be hands-on. Would also be a very successful AirBnB or Holiday let. Outside, in addition to the decked dining terrace, number 2 is accompanied by a paved rear garden for easy maintenance. The property was previously let at £350 PCM. A copy of the old lease is available upon receipt. Home Report available upon request.

The room has a charming log-burning stove and features French doors opening onto the rear garden. At the opposite end of the hall is the first of the property's two bedrooms, a spacious double, and a bathroom completes the ground floor, comprising a bath with an overhead shower and a glazed screen, and a WC-suite. The remaining bedroom, also a double, can be found on the first floor and has a walk-in cupboard, with potential to create a third bedroom at first-floor level (STPP).
