Experience true tranquility and fantastic hospitality on Scotland’s Isle of Arran…

Arran is the most southerly of Scotland’s Hebrides, lying just across the Firth of Clyde, and is an easy hop from Glasgow. The island provides a magnificent and magical remote getaway in the Highlands, offering pristine cliffs and beaches, fantastic sea views, trails leading through the hills, and woodland nature reserves.

On this 3-night Adventure & Explore holiday, we’ll explore the coast, seeing beaches and caves, and following trails to look out for wildlife on the water. We could also head into the hills for some remote rambling, staying low but appreciating the fresh air you have by the gallon in Scotland’s mountains.

Wildlife on display can include golden eagles, red squirrels, otters, seals, and even basking sharks, so bring some binoculars!

For the history lover, there are ancient chambered cairns and settlements we can visit, and the stately Brodick and Lochranza Castles, telling tales of thousands of years of Scottish history.

You’ll stay in a seriously lovely hostel right on the shore, enjoying local fare with the group each evening in the area’s fantastic pubs and restaurants.
