    About the neighbourhood
    There is so much to do in the local area and you will be hard pressed to fit it into one week! On the estate we hire out bikes, kayaks, boats and have excellent fishing for pike and wild brown trout in over 25 lochs. Loads of walks and cycling routes.
    There are ferries to the local Islands Gigha, Mull, Jura, Islay, Iona and Lismore from Oban, Kennacraig and Tayinloan. There are also local wildlife boat trips from Ardfern. The area is steeped in history with a local museum with many castles and old settlements to explore in the Kilmartin Glen. Inveraray has the Duke of Argylls Castle which is open to the public and The Old Jail to explore. Local sailing RYA club, kayaking tours,horse riding and guided whiskey trails.
