Burnbank & West Glensherraig are located in a spectacular position on the outskirts of Brodick on the beautiful Isle of Arran. The Isle of Arran (aka “Scotland in Miniature”) has everything to offer – a welcoming community, forest trails and mountain peaks, sheltered beaches, and a vast range of local heritage, crafts and produce.



Brodick, Arran’s capital, has two Co-op supermarkets, a great selection of individual shops, restaurants, cafés and a full range of services including a primary school, nursery, library and medical centre.



Brodick hosts the island’s main ferry terminal from which there are regular sailings throughout the day, serviced by Caledonian MacBrayne, to the mainland at Ardrossan/Troon. Commuters and travellers now benefit from Road Equivalent Tariff (RET) ferry fares. The port of Ardrossan & Troon both have a mainline rail station, with direct trains to Glasgow that connect with the ferry times, and is approximately 30 miles from Glasgow City Centre. Prestwick International Airport is 16 miles to the south of Ardrossan, with Glasgow International Airport 24 miles east of Ardrossan.



The village of Lamlash, only a short drive from Brodick, is home to the Island’s High School and hospital. It also offers a range of shops, restaurants and cafés. A frequent bus service runs around and across the island and, at Lochranza, there is a ferry terminal that allows quick access to the stunning West of Scotland via Claonaig. Kintyre here we come!

This is a significant land parcel extending to 532.95 Ha (1316.95 acres), the likes of which is rarely offered to the open market. This is exceptional land of national scenic importance and frequented by walkers with panoramic views toward the coast. The land is easily accessed to the south of the B880, known as the String Road. The land is predominantly hill ground sloping from north to south, providing hill grazing, used for sheep and cattle. Natural rewilding has created areas of shrubland, heather and seedling trees creating a wonderful habitat. The land is predominantly Class 4.2 for agriculture and class F2 & F3 for forestry according to the National Soil Maps of Scotland. Each field is accessed from internal tracks. The land is designated LFA and in an area of Scientifical Special Interest. A number of overhead cables and water routes cross Field 4. Sporting rights are included within the sale. The area is renowned for red deer and grouse, which thrive in such environments. The land contains peat and the current owners have actively been involved with peatland restoration over the farm but not on a commercial basis, yields and potential yields have not been assessed. There are areas of flatter ground with impeded drainage and sections of deep peat. The Soil Survey of Scotland classifies the majority of the soils as peat with mineral podzols lower down and peaty gleys on the higher plateaus. Glensherraig offers a rare opportunity to play a key role in the ongoing stewardship and management of this stunning landscape containing some of Scotland's most spectacular and important habitats where public access has been encouraged.



A delightful bothy sits within this parcel, clad with corrugated metal and a grass rood, which sleeps two.
