Isle of Arran, if you are planning to visit Arran in summer you should book your ferry tickets ASAP as they fill up quickly. Tickets can be cancelled for a full refund up to 24 hours before departure. I suggest you give CalMac a call, (Phone number hidden by Airbnb) , to get some info, they are very helpful.
