Had a pool team weekend there a few months ago. Really enjoyed it. Markie Dans would be my choice for live music/football. Boat trip to Fingal's Cave? Distillery Tour (drink related though). There's also a pictures there. Ferry to Mull and back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Head out to Dunstaffanage Castle, my second favourite castle, interesting history, lovely setting and go through the woods to the ruined chapel. https://www.historicenvironment.scot/visit-a-place/places/dunstaffnage-castle-and-chapel/ Nice walk up to McCaigs Tower and beautiful views if it’s nit raining. http://www.obanargyll.com/mccaigs-tower.html If you have a car head to Isle off Seil and from there to Easdale directions, http://www.easdaleisland.com/directions.html Easdale, Nice wee restaurant on the island, The Puffer Bar, or another on mainland just beside ferry stop, The Oyster Bar. Forgot to say that Easdale is where they have the annual World championship stone skimming competition and take your trunks/mankini and go for a swim in one of the quarries. Ask at Puffer for directions to easiest one to get into, really easy swim but clearest water in a lovely setting and you can walk in , NO plunging. If you’re not a confident swimmer just stick to skimming stones and visiting the tiny wee museum. Edited November 16, 2017 by G-Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
