Kintyre, meaning “the head of the land” or “land’s end” is a nature lover’s paradise with outdoor activities rating high on the agenda. With so many choices of things to do, see and explore, no wonder visitor’s keep returning year after year after year.

The peninsula is about 40 miles long and 6 to 8 miles wide and contains all the things (and more) that make Scotland such an attractive holiday destination … lochs, hills, forests, rivers, seascapes, palm trees (showing the effect of the Gulf Stream), sandy beaches, 40% less rainfall than the rest of the west coast of Scotland, a rich and varied history and archaeology and not to forget the world renowned Machrihanish Golf Course on the Atlantic shores. Kintyre is without a doubt one of Scotland's best kept secrets in terms of its natural beauty. However, its main asset that keeps visitors returning year after year after year is the friendliness, hospitality and unpretentiousness of its people … and it is people just like this that wait to welcome you to Dalnaspidal Guest House.
