Argyle, Arran and the Isles
With a vast mainland and home to 23 inhabited islands, the scenery and landscape in Argyll & the Isles will take your breath away. Arran which means "The Peaked Island" in Gaelic, is a small island off the West Coast of Scotland and lies in the Firth of Clyde. Arran is often referred to as 'Scotland in Miniature', and captures many aspects of the beauty of Scotland as a whole, with landscapes of towering granite peaks to peaceful sandy bays.
Kintyre was once described as Scotland's only "Main Island" as the peninsula would be an island, were it not for the short isthmus at Loch Tarbert.

Old Kinloch Bridge - Isle of Mull
The Old Kinloch Bridge over the Coladoir River points you towards Ben More,(Scottish Gaelic: Beinn Mhòr, meaning "great mountain") the highest point on the Isle of Mull and the only Hebridean Munro outside of the Isle of Skye and is therefore held in high regard on the island. Its huge bulk dominates the southern half of the Isle of Mull and is clearly seen when passing through Glen More on the road from Craignure in the east to Iona in the west.
