Isn’t Lewisian Gneiss amazing!

Arran and Bute from Great Cumbrae

Glad Staine trip point on Cumbrae

Ailsa Craig and the wee castle off Little Cumbrae

Cumbrae harbour and the Millport pier hotel

Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 at its best in the early #autumn sunshine. #Cumbrae #Millport with fine views over the sea to #Bute, the peaks of #Arran and 40 miles in the distance to the conical shape of #AilsaCraig. Great place to visit for a short break.
