Woodside - Sannox

Sannox, Isle of Arran

A family cottage for six at Sannox on Arran, set in 3 acres of enclosed garden and woodland with direct access to a sandy beach, two dogs welcome.

Woodside stands in 3 acres of gardens and woodland at Sannox on the Isle of Arran, overlooking the Firth of Clyde, with even a landing onto the sandy shore. It is all enclosed, and the owner pictures your dog ranging around those lovely grounds while you sit on the picnic bench with a morning coffee, which is this dog friendly cottage in a sentence.

Behind the classic, romantic facade the rooms are spacious but cosy. The sitting room is warm and inviting, with exposed beams and an open log fire, and the sweet country kitchen has everything a family needs, and dinner can be taken outside overlooking the water. The dogs have their own spot in the utility room, where the owner asks that they sleep, since dogs keep to the ground floor here.

Both bathrooms are on the ground floor too. Upstairs, each of the three bedrooms, the double, the twin and the single with its pull out bed, has lovely views of the landscape, and the owner calls the upstairs a cosy hideaway. The garden is perhaps the highlight, with mature planting, lush lawns and woodland, and two dogs will have covered a good share of it before the kettle boils.

From the grounds the dogs step straight onto a sweet little sandy beach on the Firth of Clyde. Keen walkers can take on Glen Sannox, which begins close by, the Corrie Golf Club and a café are within walking distance, and a castle, gardens and a tea shop lie within 7 miles.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is Woodside - Sannox dog friendly?

    Woodside is about as dog friendly as it gets on Arran. The cottage sits in 3 acres of fully enclosed gardens and woodland that lead directly onto a small sandy beach on the Firth of Clyde, so two dogs can roam the whole lot freely without you needing to worry.

  • Are dogs allowed at Woodside - Sannox year round?

    The listing doesn't specify seasonal restrictions, so it's worth contacting the property directly to confirm availability for your dates. What we do know is that dogs travel free on the Arran ferry, and with Glen Sannox on the doorstep and a private beach at the bottom of the garden, any time of year has plenty going for it.

  • What should I know before visiting Woodside - Sannox with my dog?

    Up to two dogs are welcome at Woodside, and the entire 3-acre grounds are enclosed, including the landing onto the beach, so they can be off lead from the moment you arrive. Days barely need the car — Glen Sannox is less than half a mile away, Corrie's cafe is walkable, and the tideline is right there at the bottom of the garden for an early morning run before breakfast.
