Scotland’s Most Accessible Island

Just a short ferry ride from Ardrossan, Arran offers a unique “Scotland in miniature” experience. The island boasts diverse scenery, from sandy beaches with seals to heather-clad mountains home to red deer and golden eagles. Visitors can enjoy the outdoors through hiking, fishing, boating, or playing on one of seven spectacular golf courses.

Culturally rich, Arran features the historic Brodick Castle, unique geology, and exotic plant life. Food and drink enthusiasts are well catered for with the Brodick Brewery, two award-winning distilleries (Lochranza and Lagg), and numerous gourmet restaurants. With thriving local craft shops and milder weather than the mainland, Arran is the perfect destination rain or shine.
