ALPACA YOUR BAGS and extend your stay on our magical island! Arran Alpacas is based on our rustic and sustainable glamping site which was once a thriving farm.
At Balmichael Glamping, we have self-catering accommodations (barrel pods and safari lodges) suitable for all group sizes and budgets. Glam up your stay by selecting an option with a wood-fired hot tub, perfect for relaxing whilst watching the sun set off the west coast.
