Often referred to as ‘Scotland in miniature’, the Isle of Arran boasts a generous helping of all that makes Scotland so naturally beautiful.
The sun rises and sets in the enormous sky, over a mesmerising, ever-changing coastal backdrop characterised by secluded beaches, soaring mountains, and lush, wildlife-steeped forests.
And it’s right here, on a picturesque hilltop setting, that you’ll discover Raven’s Gully: a trio of ultra-luxurious, eco-friendly pods… the likes of which you won’t ever have experienced before!
Strictly for adults only (your well-behaved dog is also welcome to join you in two of the pods), you can savour unforgettable views of both the awe-inspiring Goatfell, Arran’s highest point, and the shimmering Firth of Clyde, the British Isles’ deepest coastal waters.
Clad in Canadian red cedar, the spacious pods themselves have each been custom-designed and built for two, using sustainable technologies that mean your carbon footprint will be kept refreshingly light.
Styled as sumptuous, five-star boutique escapes, the friendly and attentive owners have included every holiday indulgence you can think of, and a few more besides.
Along with a welcome basket packed with local artisan produce, you’ll be greeted by a state-of-the-art home automation system that allows you to tailor each element of your stay to personal perfection, from lighting and heating to music and media.

…whether that’s watching the abundant wildlife, spoiling a good walk on the golf courses, sampling more of that outstanding local produce, or even conquering a mountain!

What the guests of Raven’s Gully say
“Just returned from a 2 night stay with my little dog Olly. The Pods are outstanding, lovely bespoke interior, fixtures and fittings, a mega comfy bed and the wonderful view can be seen from everywhere inside and outside. A short drive from the ferry and perfect peace and quiet. Barbara and Andy were delightful and have created something special. All the goodies on arrival were a lovely touch. I have no doubt I’ll return, best 2 nights sleep ever.”
“Our stay at Raven’s Gully was an exceptional experience. It was more than what we had imagined. The pod was immaculate and in great condition. The bed was absolutely comfortable, and the other facilities (including the smart tech) just made everything feel very “glam”. It’s close to Brodick, which allowed us to explore the local community and hop on buses easily. We also had a great time enjoying the complimentary local treats that Andy and Barbara prepared for us. We won’t spoil the details and will leave it for the future travellers to discover themselves. Wish we could give more than 5 stars!”
“Just had a wonderful few days at Raven’s Gully in a luxury pod. Such a beautiful spot, we felt very spoiled from the moment we arrived. All mod cons and gorgeous, comfy bed with crisp, clean linen. The welcome treats (for us and our pooches) were such a lovely touch. We had amazing weather and it was great to explore the island knowing we were coming back to creature comforts each day. Barbara and Andy are excellent hosts, helpful and happy to assist. Highly recommend staying here, we’d love to return someday.”
