All our rooms at the MacKinnon Country House Hotel benefit from central heating, en-suite bathroom, direct dial telephone, colour television, hair drier and tea and coffee making facilities. A very special feature in every en-suite bathroom is the fine array of beautiful toiletries made especially for you on the Isle of Arran. The MacKinnon Country House Hotel built in 1912 by Major Archie MacKinnon was originally named Dunringell after his clan’s old fort near Elgol. Respected as an ideal example of a Scottish country house hotel, the MacKinnon has ten rooms in the main building. A further eight rooms in the Hunting Lodge provides the perfect setting for the romantic at heart! The hotel has been awarded three stars by the Scottish Tourist Board.
