The Isle of Arran is the most accessible and most Southerly of all the Scottish islands.
The island is cut in half by the Highland Boundary Fault, a geological division which makes the north rugged and hilly, whereas the south is more gentle and lower lying.
As a result it is often referred to as 'Scotland in Miniature', as many aspects of Scotland's landscape as a whole are encapsulated by the island.
Arran is 20 miles long and 56 miles round and is located off the south-west coast of Scotland.
