Having just got back from Oakbank, I can genuinely say it was the best holiday stay. Great location for views and amenities, retaining tranquility and the highest standard of cleanliness & character. We got to meet the owners daughter who couldn’t have been more accommodating, you have full use of tennis court and the gorgeous greenery. Our family made use of the lodge, apartment and cottage and each had everything you could need. The views of the holy isle and animals are spectacular. Families can make great use of the wooden play park that allows for secure play. Bags of fun and memory making were had and the kids even got to help feed the rabbits amongst the other animals living their. Just perfect thank you so much.

This is the second time we've stayed at Oakbank - once in the apartment and then in Squirrels view. Both have been wonderful! Accommodation is very clean and comfortable and has everything that you could need. Exceptional.
It's a lovely walk along the shore road (lots of seals!) to go into Lamlash for shops, cafes, hotels etc.
Oakbank will be our first choice when returning to Arran again. Perfect accommodation in a lovely area!

We stayed four nights in Cottage 1 over Christmas, our son and his wife live in Arran and we wanted to spend time with them while having our own accommodation.
The cottage was warm and well appointed and the kitchen was very well equipped and had a large table, ideal for entertaining.
We would thoroughly recommend the cottage for winter breaks as well as for summer holidays.

Thank you for the use of your beautiful 'Old Byre' apartment. Equipped with everything you'd need including a travel cot (for free) and in an ideal location I'd highly recommend staying at Oakbank Farm.

We had a great time. We rented all 4 properties and made a home in the kitchen of Cottage One. Teresa was amazing and very friendly - love the ducks, chickens and wild hares running across the garden. Played games, sun bathed and eat very very well. Loved everything see you again soon: You housed all 13 of us very well.

Oak Bank Farm, Its in the best possition on the best road near the best village on the best island on the west coast of scotland. You couldnt ask for anything better. Dogs or Kids they will all love it.
Accomodation is great, quite and peaceful over looking Holy Isle in Lamlash Bay, with Red Squirrels literaly on the door step.
We return every year, could not reccomend more highly.

This trip was our first experience of Scotland, it was amazing. Oakbank is a lovely place to stay, it is like a home from home. The apartment was clean and well decorated. It had everything we needed for our stay on the Isle. The owners were very welcoming and helpful and always available when we had a query. I would recommend it to anyone, infact my cousin is going this year. I wanted to go back this year but it is fully booked!!

Had a surprise birthday bash at Oakbank which was perfect in every respect, we had three of the cottages housing 11 of us very comfortably with all facilities you could want, Teresa was amazingly accommodating in organising a gezebo and BBQ's for the big day. The dogs, the ducks and chickens, not to mention the squirrel all help to create a fantastic ambience.
I can't recommend Oakbank Farm highly enough, a great time was had by all.

This was not our first visit to Oakbank Farm and it will certainly not be our last- we love it here ! Oakbank Farm in our opinion is in the best position within the nicest village on the Island. All the cottages are well equipped & very comfortable at any time of the year & out of season breaks are peaceful. In particular our IT mad child loved the WIFI improvements this year - with two hubs now available - the service was continually excellent! Thank you Teresa we will definitely be back soon.

Stayed for a short 2 nights with 3 children and it was fantastic. 2 minute walk to the beach, lovely grounds, clean and comfortable house, all the mod cons you would expect. Chickens and Ducks for the kids to chase too!

It was so relaxing and quiet, could have stayed for much longer which is the best comment for a place- We'll certainly look at returning soon
