  • Bug hotel and wildlife

    Bug hotel and wildlife

    At Ardgartan Argyll there is a bug hotel, encouraging lots of bugs and insects. This means they can pollinate our flowers and keep unwanted pests to a minimum like aphids and slugs.

  • Scotland trails

    Scotland trails

    There are lots of scenic walks direct from your cabin. Try the shorter Riverside or Boathouse walks, both under 3.2km, to whet your walking appetite. Then, for a longer walk, take the Cat Craig Loop. This 6.4km walk has great views of Loch Long and there are picnic spots along the way. Build on a further 6.4km and some stunning views with the Coilessen Glen Loop.
