There are now lots of places to stay overnight,  ranging from private individuals hosting 5 van sites, to council run parking areas, Forestry and Land Scotland car parks and ones hosted by the Scottish Canals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It may help that we&#8217;re not going to the big draws like the NC500 or the Isle of Skye. While we haven\u2019t struggled to find places to stay, we have discovered that the campsites on Arran we wanted to visit are full for the next week or so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Top tip: if coming here in high season, or just good weather, book places in advance. Maybe that&#8217;s why when we\u2019ve found places where you can park up for the night, the locals are really friendly and welcoming about it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s true there are \u2018No Overnight Parking\u2019 signs aimed at motorhomes in a lot of the villages, but I have no complaint about that. We visit the villages in the day and move somewhere a bit quieter for the night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ourtour.co.uk\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250513_103853-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1030\" height=\"481\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250513_103853-1030x481.jpg\" alt=\"Empty food chiller in supermarket\" class=\"wp-image-46815\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250513_103853-1030x481.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250513_103853-300x140.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250513_103853-768x359.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250513_103853-1536x717.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250513_103853-2048x956.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250513_103853-1500x701.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250513_103853-705x329.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">We&#8217;re glad we have quite a bit of food on board as the Co-ops are suffering shortages due to a cyber attack.

Wild camping is permitted by law in Scotland, but this only applies to tents, not vehicles. It isn&#8217;t technically legal to wild camp in a motorhome.&nbsp;This does somewhat beg the question as to why there are at least three stand-alone motorhome service points that we know of in Arran, which have been provided by the local communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ourtour.co.uk\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250513_100558-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1030\" height=\"481\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250513_100558-1030x481.jpg\" alt=\"Motorhome service point in Brodick, Arran\" class=\"wp-image-46814\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250513_100558-1030x481.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250513_100558-300x140.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250513_100558-768x359.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250513_100558-1536x717.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250513_100558-2048x956.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250513_100558-1500x701.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250513_100558-705x329.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The motorhome service point at Auchrannie motorhome stop in Brodick is available for everyone to use, with a donation box by the water tap.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It seems that while the official line is we\u2019re not allowed to wild camp, everyone I\u2019ve spoken to, which has been mainly Scottish motorhomers and locals, say as long as there isn\u2019t a \u2018No Overnighting\u2019 sign, you can park.

Some porpoises even jumped out for the water for us, but they were far too quick to catch on camera. We drifted to sleep that night with just the sound of the waves on the shore and slept like logs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The morning was cloudy and much cooler when we awoke so we both went out for a run in separate directions along the coastal path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the sun burned off the clouds we headed into town for a spot of lunch in Lamlash to celebrate 22 years since our first date \u2013 our Dateiversary if you will. The food and service in the Drift Inn were spot on, and the view almost matched the one from our windscreen. Instead of dessert we popped into the local newsagent as I wanted to try the Scottish Tablet flavour of the local Arran ice cream. It didn\u2019t disappoint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ourtour.co.uk\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250514_132318.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"46830\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250514_132318.jpg\" alt=\"Both of us sat at a table of food with a view out over the sea\" class=\"wp-image-46830\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ourtour.co.uk\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250514_141547-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1030\" height=\"580\" data-id=\"46831\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250514_141547-1030x580.jpg\" alt=\"Both of us sat on a bench by the sea with mini tubs of ice cream\" class=\"wp-image-46831\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250514_141547-1030x580.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250514_141547-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250514_141547-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250514_141547-1536x865.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250514_141547-2048x1153.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250514_141547-1500x845.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250514_141547-705x397.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We hadn\u2019t planned to visit Lamlash, but are so glad we did.

We\u2019ve stayed in some amazing places wild camping, but it\u2019s those very few nights when there\u2019s a bang on the side of the van that I remember the most.
