See & Do Things to do in and around Argyll, West Scotland.

Ardfern is a beautiful and tranquil west coast village which has been popular with holiday makers for many years and each cottage has its own spectacular views of Loch Craignish, its islands and the hills beyond. 

Within the village of Ardfern there is a church, hotel with restaurant and pub, cafe and craft shop, and an extremely well stocked village store and post office.

Ardfern has a thriving village community, and there are frequent theatrical performances from touring companies hosted in the modern village hall, at which visitors are most welcome.  The annual Elemental Arts festival takes place each July with a varied programme of exhibitions and events for all ages.

The Craignish peninsular is renowned for its beautiful scenery, its islands and views out to Jura and Scarba, its wildlife and botanical species. Because of the mild climate influenced by the gulf stream, exotic species such as palm trees can flourish and the colours and scenery change almost constantly.

The area is a haven for wildlife with otters, seals and a wide variety of sea birds and birds of prey. In the autumn swans and ducks in large numbers gather at the head of the loch.
