Today is...

 

Welcome to Ocean Breeze,

situated right on the shore in the village of Kildonan
on the south coast of the Isle of Arran.

"Ocean Breeze" was built around 1900, and was used as a boarding house from its earliest days.
It is occupied in part by Kildonan Stores & Post Office which is one
of the oldest businesses still active on the Isle of Arran.
Elspeth and Russell bought the property and retail business in October 1994 from a descendant of the founders.
