Corrie, Arran

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Corrie (Gaelic: An Coire) is a village on the east coast of the Isle of Arran in Scotland, 6 miles north of Brodick. It lies under the island's highest mountain, Goatfell, and a path provides access to the hillside.

The villages used to be a regular stop for steamers circumnavigating the island, but the pier has since fallen into disrepair.

It currently has one hotel/pub, The Corrie Hotel.

The village shop was sold circa-1987 (since converted into a family home) and is now based near the local craft shops. There have been a few owners since the early 1990s, and in the early-2000s the owners have stocked many organic foods as well as the usual grocery products as before.
