11 holes, a par-3 pitch and putt course, for 18 holes you replay seven. Deer often stand in the line of play, scorning all cries of "Fore!". Check-in at the campsite reception.
In an attractive old farmstead at the north edge of town, this covers Arran's geology, archaeology and social history.
This splendid pile is Arran's top sight. It dates to 14th century but most of what you see is grand baronial Victoriana. Plus gardens and country park.
A 13th-century bastion rebuilt in the 16th century and now just a masonry shell. It has a dramatic setting on the shingle spit of the village harbour, enfolded by hills and with views towards Kintyre. It's open in summer to visitors and sheep alike, so watch where you step.
The outstanding group of ancient stones on Arran. If you were secretly disappointed by “the Stonehenge Experience”, come here to reconnect with your inner Ancient Brit. They're from Neolithic going on Bronze Age, 3000 to 4000 years old. There are six circles, at a point lit at midsummer sunrise through the notch of Machrie Glen. The first along the track from the car park (Moss Farm Road Circle) is modest as its stone was robbed and the track goes through it. The main group half a mile east are impressive granite and sandstone blocks. Others lie here and there across the heath, and the area can be boggy, wear stout boots.
