Understand
The Isle of Arran is often described as 'Scotland in Miniature', offering the scenery of the Scottish Highlands and Lowlands on one Island, in the North and South respectively.
The northern part of the island is a National Scenic Area, it's easy to understand why!
Note that if the ferry is not running, the shops will not get any newspapers until the ferry starts running again. And don't ask anyone before 9AM "Have you got any papers?"
