Lochranza Castle occupies the northern headland of the Isle of Arran, a perfect spot to sit awhile and soak in the stunning mountain views and vast seascape.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Dating to the early 13th century, the castle\u2019s now-ruinous state is a fitting reminder of its colourful past. Drama continues to imbue the site. Red deer<\/a> come down from the mountains to feed on the lush grass around the castle. From here, too, you may spot the resident grey seals<\/a> basking on the rocky shore. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
