Isle of Arran

Often described as "Scotland in Miniature", Arran has a blend of Highland and Island scenery with granite peaks and deep glens to the north of the island, contrasting with its rolling and lush farmlands to the south. The small island, 20 miles long with 54 miles of varied coastline and located off the south-west coast of Scotland, enjoys a temperate milde climate thanks to the proximity of the Gulf Stream. All this is within easy reach of Glasgow which makes it an ideal holiday destination. Being a haven for walkers and climbers from all over the world and with its seven golf courses, castles, distilleries, outdoor activities and its excellent locally produced food Arran in a way, is a condensed version of the best Scotland has to offer.
