Further Details |
Kintyre’s main community in the south is Campbeltown which lies 4 miles away from Kintyre Cottages. Once known as Kinlochkilkerran, it was renamed by the Earl of Argyll (a Campbell) during the 17th century, and two centuries later the town enjoyed great prosperity, when shipbuilding and fishing industries were booming, and when over 30 whisky distilleries specialised in the production of Scotland’s famous amber-coloured liquid. There are two distilleries in operation today – Glen Scotia and Springbank, with the latter offering visitor’s tours by appointment. Campbeltown is home to the country’s oldest working cinema, an Art Deco treasure, on Hall Street, and affectionately referred to as The Wee Picture House. The harbour is busy with leisure craft and is home to a number of fishing boats.
