Holiday Arran
Published:  24 July, 2007

If you are thinking of an ideal, get-away-from-it-all holiday, short break or even a long weekend on the west coast of Scotland, then look no further – the Isle of Arran has it all and we have it all listed in our free online publication "Holiday Arran" which you can download at www.holidayarran.co.uk

Action-breaks, climbing, sailing, fishing, golfing, hill-walking or simply relaxing in peaceful bliss – everyone is catered for.

Spectacular ‘Highland’ style scenery amid misty hills and glens, lovely ‘Lowland’ type moorland and lush pasture where wildlife abounds – all are neatly packaged within the most accessible of all the Scottish islands.

Rich in history, yet modern in outlook, Arran enjoys all-year round short ferry links with Ayrshire and Scotland’s Central Belt – less than one hour’s drive from Glasgow, and less than one hour’s sail from the Firth of Clyde port of Ardrossan.

This island paradise is also close to the golfing Meccas of Troon and Turnberry and there is a shorter 30 minute sea crossing to the Kintyre coast and the excellent Argyll links golf courses such as Machrihanish – but with Arran boasting seven wonderfully scenic courses within its 20-mile length, golfers may never want to leave.
