LOST WORLD IN THE MOUNTAINS OF ARGYLL…

LOST WORLD IN THE MOUNTAINS OF ARGYLL…

Something of the past often survives into the present, but rarely does this happen to an entire village…Auchindrain is a unique place!

Auchindrain was the last “township” in Scotland to be inhabited and worked, and it is the most complete and well-preserved example that you can visit today. In townships people lived and worked together in order to survive in the Highland landscape.  Auchindrain was established as a community before 1500. Its people began to leave in the 1890s but the buildings remained and became cowsheds, stables and potato stores. The last family moved away in 1967. In Auchindrain you have a chance to explore how ordinary people lived all those years ago. A visit will take you back to a vanished way of life. Auchindrain is on the A83, six miles south of Inveraray. It is set in a beautiful and dramatic landscape with excellent walks nearby.

Exceptional Seafood !!!

Exceptional Seafood !!!

The Loch Fyne Oyster Bar & Restaurant is situated in Cairndow at the point where the mountains meet the waters of Loch Fyne. Cairndow is an ancient village on the shores of Loch Fyne just 8 miles from Inveraray!

In the centre of the village is the Stagecoach Inn which is one of the oldest coaching inns in Scotland. Notable visitors include Queen Victoria, who changed horses here in 1875, Dorothy Wordsworth, sister of the famous poet, and the poet Keats. Kilmorich Parish Church is one of only two churches in Scotland to be built with an interesting hexagonal shape.

It is a beautiful location to explore the Scottish glens with enchanting walks, to enjoy mountain views and crystal clear waters of Loch Fyne.

Alongside the idyllic setting, the Loch Fyne Oyster Bar offers world-class seafood from the loch.

Nearby is the ancient home of the MacNaughton clan, Dunderave Castle. It is very photogenic but hard to photograph, unless you find the right layby on the road to Inveraray!
