...Location
Arran is reached by car ferry from Ardrossan or Claonaig. Ardrossan
lies on the Scottish mainland and is ideally situated for the three
most important Scottish airports (Edinburgh, Glasgow Paisley and
Glasgow Prestwick) as well as well as guests from south, west and
north. Cloanaig on the peninsula of Kintyre, is the preferred route for
all coming or going to Scotland's West Coast. With the availability of
Island Hopscotch tickets for the ferries, Arran is very easy to
incorporate into a tour of this part of Scotland.
Often referred to as 'Scotland in Miniature', the Isle of Arran within
a small radius captures many aspects of the beauty of Scotland as a
whole, from towering granite peaks inviting hill walkers and climbers
to peaceful sandy bays overlooked by palm trees growing in the warm
climate of the Gulf Stream.
The wildlife is outstanding, with deer, pheasant, otter and eagle
readily seen in the mountains. There are over 100 species of birds.
There are colonies of seals near coastal caves, trails and pathways to
mysterious Bronze Age Stone Circles, and many relaxing angling hours to
be enjoyed by streams or sea. 7 challenging golf courses tempt the
golfer, whilst history and heritage is catered for at Brodick Castle
and various museums.
