Escape the vibrant city of Glasgow for a day and join us on a journey to Scotland in Miniature, the Isle of Arran
Make your way to the seaside town of Ardrossan, where you'll board the ferry. Enjoy the scenic crossing by capturing the beauty with your cameras, and keep an eye out for jellyfish and dolphins during the journey.
The ferry touches down in Brodick, Arran's biggest collection of shops and restaurants. A short drive down the road takes you to the gates of Brodick Castle, the ancient seat of the Dukes of Hamilton.
Step into the castle, where opulent Victorian décor and dark wood create a dramatic ambiance. The castle's haunted reputation stems from the tragic fate of the 'Grey Lady,' said to linger in the dungeons. Yet, the gloom lifts outside as you explore the formal garden and woodland trails, offering a contrasting, cheerful escape.
Enjoy a quick meal before reboarding the bus to continue exploring the beautiful island. Will you visit Lochranza, a charming village with a ruined castle, or opt for Blackwaterfoot? Indulge in pastries from the local bakery and take a leisurely stroll along the beach.
As you reboard the Brodick ferry in the afternoon, you'll feel more acquainted with Arran and grasp why it's so dearly loved. Reflect on the day through photos or enjoy town-sourced cheese and chocolate on your return journey to Glasgow.
