ISLE of ARRAN / Sannox...

You only get a hint of how beautiful Sannox is in passing through by car or by bus. Make a point to spend some time here to really enjoy the diverse range of stunning, natural beauty.








Sannox from above...










and from the Bay









where you get the MOST spectacular views











don't'cha just love the pics that these sooooooo kool kayakers take?!
AWESOME!











like the Vikings of 1000 years ago...silently landing their 'wee-mini longboats' to...









rape, pillage and plunder







or more likely...












simply enjoy the lovely beaches and chill-out!













with the spectacular mountains always in view...












our friends, Kate & Gus, treated us to an excellent dinner here a few years back...










with splendid views over the Firth of Clyde.

















take away the water and it kinda looks like Arizona!


 
















Giants toothpicks? Or the remnants of a jetty from  times long past?









interesting rock formations









looking for a lost sheep perhaps?











looking for a lost sheepdog perhaps?











the Sannox Burn starts high up in Glen Sannox











and tumbles through the Glen...








on it's way to the sea...















This guy is sooooo confident he doesn't even need to look where he's stepping...








mm? mm? mm? what now?!








or if someone comes the other way?




almost at the




SEA!








and here is the splendidly scenic...









Corrie Golf Club at...








GLEN SANNOX!










SIMPLY





 
 
AWESOME!








saddle up...











for some pony trekking through beautiful trails and






lovely wooded







green canopied






narrow lanes








leading to this charming rental cottage...












the aptly named, Woodside Cottage... what a spectacular setting!
