The west coast of Scotland is famed for its beautiful beaches, although Argyll is not usually the first destination on a Scottish beach hunter’s itinerary. What many people do not realise is that Argyll has a beautiful coastline with a huge variety of beaches to suit all tastes.
On the shores of the famous Loch Lomond you will find gentle sloping beaches leading down to the fresh waters of the loch, hugely popular in summer months. On our own loch, Loch Goil, you will find shingle beaches with the Castle and village green as a back drop.
Walk from Carrick Castle or drive around to the small village of Ardentinny on Loch Long. Here you will find a fabulous sandy beach backed with woodland, perfect for BBQ’s and just lazing around.
Of course there is also “Argyll’s Secret Coast.” Just over an hour from Rhumhor this is an area bordered by Loch Fyne and the Kyles of Bute and it boasts some amazing white sandy beaches, clear waters and incredible views. It is only two hours from the capital city and many living there are not even aware it exists!
So if you are looking for a destination in Scotland that suits adventurers and beach lovers come and stay at Rhumhor in Argyll. You’ll see a beach holiday does not have to mean boring!
