Summer is saved

The fact summer has been saved by the Scottish government timescale, which sees all lockdown restrictions lifted gradually by the middle of June, is great news for the tourism and hospitality industry on Arran.

Tourism bosses say it is the best news they have had in a long time.

There is no doubt the sector has had a tough year, tougher than many, and it is great businesses can now plan and look forward to future trade.

We have no doubt there will be challenges ahead but we join everyone in wishing them all their best summer yet. Cheers.
