Lamlash is the seat of Arran's local government offices, and is also the location of the island's only police station, secondary school and hospital.

The village has several buildings of historical interest, including Hamilton Terrace, which consists of two rows of idyllic single storey-and-attic cottages on the Lamlash seafront, arranged in pairs.
