Entire Home, Isle of Arran, Brodick Great Location
Our stay in Rosa Altanna was very comfortable. The apartment is cosy and the space is great. The kitchen is well equipped and there is a good selection of books, DVDs and board games in case time needs to be spent indoors. Heather is a wonderful host, providing clear instructions and helpful advice about the ferries. Recommended.

South Loch View Glenstriven Estate
A gorgeous stay, beautiful scenery with options for walks and swims and a lovely environment. Equipped with everything you would want and a responsive host. We always have a lovely time when we stay here and will be back again!

Avondale
Just spent a week at Avondale and I would highly recommend it. The flat was much bigger than we expected, beautifully clean, loads of parking and what a view! Ulrike was easy to contact and very helpful.

Whiting Bay
We had a great short break. The location was perfect for exploring Arran. I loved my morning coffee on the deck. I was joined each morning by a red squirrel! The chalet was clean, cosy and comfortable. Zoe was extremely helpful.

Luxury Coastal Getaway with sea views, Argyll
Absolutely lovely stay, the house is well laid out with thoughtful touches to make it a very comfortable visit. The views to the sea are stunning and the cosy fireplace means it’s a treat to sit and watch the weather roll by!

Mary’s Cottage, Campbeltown
What an amazing little cottage, next door to Heather’s own house, on a very smart residential street, with glorious views from the windows, and conveniently placed to walk into town. It was absolutely spotless, warm and very comfortable. Plenty of wood was provided for the log burner, which was welcome in February. The kitchen was the best equipped one I’ve ever encountered in a holiday home, and included oils, condiments, dishwasher tablets, etc. plus a thoughtful welcome treat of wine, biscuits and nibbles. It was sad to leave the cottage, and I feel sure we’ll go back one day, especially as Kintyre was utterly beautiful. Thanks for allowing us to stay.

Greenside with lovely sea views in Whiting Bay
Tasteful and comfortable bungalow very close to beach. Very well equipped. Jamie, our host, was super helpful. Do note that there are no food shops very close by. Great food store at the end of the bay but not open when we arrived so it was porridge for dinner! We recommend the Drift Inn at Lamlash for dinner and there's a lovely circular walk to the waterfalls from the house.

Modern luxury cabin
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Cynthia greeted us on arrival and had provided oj, tea, coffee, hot chocolate and biscuits. Loved the hot tub. Cabin was very comfortable and clean and surroundings were stunning.

Your guide to Campbeltown
All About Campbeltown
The port of Campbeltown, nestled against the banks of Kildalloig Bay near Campbeltown Loch, serves as a picturesque base for exploring the scenic landscapes of Scotland’s Kintyre Peninsula and the Isle of Arran to the northeast. One of the largest towns in the region, Campbeltown was once a distillation hub known as the whisky capital of the world.
Vintage fishing boats float out on the calm bay waters, and the rolling hills of the Scottish countryside form a picturesque backdrop to Georgian-era houses and shops. Cobblestone walkways and streetside cafes that serve fresh seafood hauled in by local anglers line the waterfront. There’s no shortage of historical sites to visit nearby, from the oldest continuously running cinema in the country to the 16th-century Saddell Castle, which overlooks the chilly waters of the Firth of Clyde.
The best time to stay in a holiday rental in Campbeltown
Campbeltown’s northern coastal climate includes moderate swings in weather conditions throughout the year. Summers tend to be pleasantly warm with slightly below-average levels of rainfall — particularly in the first half of the season — and there are a slew of summer events, all of which makes the warmer months a great time to look for accommodation in Campbeltown. One of the more popular events during this time is the Mull of Kintyre Music Festival, which celebrates traditional Celtic, Irish, and Scottish musical forms in venues throughout the town. Winter brings moderately higher levels of rain compared to the other seasons and temperatures that hover just above freezing. The shoulder seasons are marked by brisk temperatures that are pleasant for scenic hikes — but you’ll need sturdy footwear and waterproof clothing.
Top things to do in Campbeltown
Machrihanish Bay
Less than ten minutes from Campbeltown on the opposite side of the peninsula is Machrihanish Bay, where you’ll find miles of gold, sandy beach. While Machrihanish Beach, on its southern end, is perfect for a peaceful stroll to watch the sun set over the Atlantic, Westport Beach to the north is home to some of the best surfing in Scotland. That’s also where you’ll find the Machrihanish Dunes, the biggest sand dunes in Argyll. The area is also known for its fantastic golf courses, some of which are just a few steps from the coast.
Campbeltown Heritage Centre
This historic centre was founded in a disused 19th-century former church. Exhibits spanning interpretive art pieces, historical photographs, fishing boats, and reconstructions of the town’s earlier periods detail the area’s cultural and economic past. Mining, maritime traditions, and local ecologies are displayed in this celebration of the Kintyre Peninsula’s heritage.
Linda McCartney Memorial Garden
Located next to the Campbeltown Museum by the harbour, this picturesque garden is in the heart of the village yet just steps from the sea. A group of local volunteers maintains park benches, manicured lawns, and brilliantly vibrant flower beds in honour of a famous former resident.
