Isle of Arran
The
Isle
of Arran is truly a magical Island. Only 55 minutes by ferry
from
Ayrshire, you arrive to a stunning and diverse Island. The
North has
rugged mountains with U shaped valleys, and lochs. While the
South has
rolling hills and is in contrast to the North, thus Arran is
known as
"Scotland in minature".
Brodick Bay is dominated by Goatfell. Brodick Castle & Gardens
is a "must see" while you are on the Island
At the North end, Lochranza is in an amazing setting with the
ancient Castle on a spit that juts out in to the sea loch.
The distillery is also in Lochranza and it produces award winning spirits.
The Waverley is the last sea going paddle steamer in the world. A great day out.
Machrie Bay is on the west coast.
Kings Caves, where Robert the Bruce is rumoured to have hidden.
Blackwaterfoot Beach on a summers day, with Kintyre & Sanda in the distance.
Sunsets on the west coast can be incredible.
Pladda is at the South end of Arran, near Kildonan.
