Arran - General Information

Nestling in the Firth of Clyde between the Ayrshire coast and the Kintyre Peninsula the island benefits from both mainland shelter and the warm currents of the North Atlantic Drift. Yes, we have a few Palm trees and the occasional Basking Shark visiting our surrounding waters!

Our island is often called "Scotland in Miniature" which is well deserved for we can boast spectacular scenery, from mountain ridges to deserted, beautiful sandy beaches, an abundance of wildlife from Grey Seals to Golden Eagles and a variety of flora and fauna which colour our island in all its seasons. We even have a few Ancient Monuments, and a couple of castles but not for renting through us!
