Travelling via boat, there is a sheltered concrete jetty situated halfway down the eastern shore of the island in a small bay. There is also an alternative landing spot historically used on the northwest tip of the island used to pull up a boat (see sale plan). Situated above the jetty there is an attractive stone and slate single room bothy (4.03m x 7.71m) and an open sided boat house (4.89m x 3.70m). A tarmac path rises from the jetty and boathouse for a short distance until reaching the Lighthouse and associated buildings, situated at the southern end of the island at about 22 metres above sea level. The path was historically used to bring supplies from the boat via quad and trailer.

From the lighthouse and range of associated buildings, there are dramatic far reaching views looking South to Ailsa Craig, the Kintyre Peninsula and Northern Ireland on a clear day.

Adjacent to the lighthouses, there is the Former Lighthouse Keeper's accommodation as follows:

Hallway (1.22m x 6.27m), dining kitchen (5.03m x 3.67m), double bedroom 1 (3.53m x 3.67m), freezer room/pantry (2.91m x 2.75m), double bedroom 2 (3.67m x 3.33m), sitting room (3.91m x 3.47m), double bedroom 3 (3.69m x 2.18m), double bedroom 4 (3.60m x 5.55m), double bedroom 5 (3.41m x 2.65m), family bathroom (2.79m x 2.64m), sitting room (3.54m x 4.03m) and second hallway (6.24m x 1.20m) with second entrance.

The accommodation has not been used in recent years and needs to be upgraded.

Adjacent, there is a pair of more modern outbuildings which comprise of the following:

Building 1: entrance hall, reception room (3.61m x 4.03m), former generator room (6.25m x 3.59m) and separate room with separate entrance (3.88m x 3.50m).

Building 2: shower room (1.82m x 1.98m), double bedroom with sitting area and kitchenette (5.65m x 3.62m).

There is a further extensive range of outbuildings currently used for storage which would have development potential, subject to gaining planning consent(s).

To the east of the buildings, there is the wonderful extensive former Keeper's walled gardens. With high stone-built walls, they extend to about 2.5 acres in total. Previously used to grow fruit and vegetables for the Keepers, the gardens are now all done to grass. There is also a traditional outbuilding known as the Tractor shed (10.81m x 2.92m).

The island is an important breeding ground and stop off point for a variety of migratory seabirds. Over 100 species of birds have been recorded on Pladda island in the past. The island has successful breeding colonies of Artic Terns, a variety of gull species, Turnstones and Shags.

Helipad
There is a helipad within the walled gardens adjacent to the tractor shed.

Pladda Rock or Pladda Isle lies off the South Coast of Arran; 28 acres nestled in The Firth of Clyde.

The island is dramatic and remote, lying approximately a kilometre off the South Coast of Arran. From Silver Sands beach, the journey across the reef and through the race tide takes about 15 minutes.

The closest range of services are on the Isle of Arran in the small village of Kildonan. Kildonan lies on the South East coast and contains a village shop, a post office, a campsite, and Kildonan Hotel, from which Pladda can be seen. Additionally, there are a number of other small villages and towns across the island, th
