Holy Isle is located close to the eastern shore of the Isle of Arran. This small (one square mile) island has a history of being a religious hermitage that dates back hundreds of years, and the tradition of quiet seclusion continues to this day at the Centre for World Peace and Health on the western edge of the island.

Visitors are welcome to walk around and enjoy the landscape on the many paths that circle Holy Isle, where they’ll find beautiful views across Arran and the Firth of Clyde.
