What to expect

Embark on an island adventure from Glasgow to the charming Isle of Arran, often dubbed Scotland in Miniature. Departing from bustling Glasgow, you'll reach Ardrossan and board a scenic ferry with potential wildlife sightings.

Upon arrival in Brodick, Arran's hub, explore its quaint shops and restaurants. A short drive leads to Brodick Castle, the historic seat of the Dukes of Hamilton. Discover the dramatic Victorian interior, adorned with dark wood and intricate furnishings. Engage with knowledgeable staff sharing tales of the castle's haunted past, rumored to be haunted by the 'Grey Lady.'

Transitioning from the castle's somber atmosphere, explore the formal gardens and woodland trails surrounding it. After a meal, the adventure continues as you hop back on the bus to uncover more of Arran's beauty. Potential stops include Lochranza, home to a ruined castle, or a detour to Blackwaterfoot for pastries and a beach stroll.

As you board the return ferry in Brodick, you'll feel a deeper connection to Arran, understanding its magnetic allure. Reflect on day memories, flipping through photos or savoring locally sourced treats on your journey back to Glasgow.
