If it rains

Drive to the Arran Heritage Museum (01770 302636) in Brodick, offering insight into the lives of those who have lived in this remote part of the country over the centuries or visit The National Trust Scotland owned Brodick Castle (01770 302202). For some more luxury, try the Auchrannie Hotel Spa Resort (01770 302234) with extensive indoor leisure facilities including an impressive swimming pool or drive to Lochranza, in the north, where the distillery (01770 830264) runs fantastic tours, including whiskey tasting and a try of their excellent cream liqueur – Arran Gold.

Nearby

It's a 15 minute walk to Torrylinn Beach, a vast sandy space when the tide is out with excellent views across to Ailsa Craig in the distance, an almost perfectly conical shaped little island jutting out from the sea. From the yurts you can gain access directly onto forest farm tracks and footpaths, ideal for a casual stroll or some light mountain biking (or for something more serious try cycling the entire 60-mile circuit of the island). If you don't have your own you can hire bikes from Arran Adventure Company (01770 302244) who also offer a wide range of other outdoor activities – the gorge walking excursions are particularly thrilling. The island also boasts a staggering 7 different golf courses – so, if you bring your clubs, there's one for every day of the week!

Food & Drink

It is a 10 minute walk to the nearest restaurant, The Lagg Hotel (01770 870 255), where landlady Mary is accompanied by friendly staff and an excellent chef – great for an evening meal but also well worth an afternoon stop for their scones! The nearest shop is a local store in Blackwaterfoot, which is a 15 minute drive. Blackwaterfoot also contains a number of restaurants and shops.

Open

Start of February to end of November

Getting There

The ferry berths in the port of Brodick (where you can pick up supplies in the local Co-op). The campsite is then 18 miles (35 minutes) from the port. Follow the coast road south around the island and as you enter the village of Kilmory you'll see the Creamery on your left. Take the next right turn and follow the road to the Church – Runach Arainn is just beyond the Church.

Public Transport

There is a bus service from Brodick Ferry that runs all the way around the island stopping in Kilmory – 5 minutes walk from the site.
