The 5 Best Ancient Ruins in Isle of Arran, Scotland

January 11, 2022 Diedre Savory

Packed to the gills with antique silver, porcelain and furniture, the red sandstone Brodick Castle is one of the highlights of the Isle of Arran. The castle overlooks Goatfell, a majestic hill that’s a popular day hike. The Machrie Moor stone circles make for a mystical field trip, as does a tour of The Arran Malt whisky distillery.

Well worth a short stop if you are travelling round the Island. Park on the road by the sea. A beautiful spot looking out to the Kintyre peninsula. It’s a short uphill walk along a farm track to the stones bit is signposted. A fabulous view from the stones and very atmospheric
