Situation

Newmains is situated on the west coast of the Kintyre peninsula in an attractive coastal position. The property enjoys glorious sea views towards the northern tip of Northern Ireland, as well as Gigha, Islay, Jura, and the Mull of Kintyre and benefits from the mild climate created by the Gulf Stream. The western coast of Kintyre boasts numerous beautiful, unspoiled beaches - some of which are only a short drive from the property.

The town of Campbeltown is 10.8 miles to the south and offers two supermarkets, a full range of shops and professional services, a secondary school, two primary schools, an A&E hospital, leisure facilities (including a modern swimming pool), and a cinema. There are currently three active distilleries, with a further three in the planning stage.

From Tarbert, there are ferry links to Islay and Portavadie, offering an alternative route to Glasgow via Dunoon and Gourock. The ferry to the beautiful Isle of Gigha from Tayinloan is just over 10 minutes to the north of the property. There are two weekday return flights and one Sunday return flight between Campbeltown Airport and Glasgow Airport.

For sporting and outdoor enthusiasts, the links course at Machrihanish is internationally acclaimed and attracts many visitors. An additional 18-hole course, Machrihanish Dunes Golf Club, has recently opened. Tarbert also offers a challenging 18-hole course, and there are 9-hole courses in Carradale and on the Isle of Gigha. The 18-hole Dunaverty Golf Course is located at Southend. The 3-mile golden beach of Machrihanish Bay is well known for windsurfing and surf canoeing.

World-class sailing is available with access either to Loch Fyne at Tarbert or to the west coast and the Inner Hebrides via West Loch Tarbert. The Crinan Canal connects Loch Fyne at Ardrishaig with Loch Crinan, providing a route to Mull and the Hebrides.

Productive sea fishing from both shore and boat is available locally, with trout and salmon fishing also possible (by permit) in surrounding rivers and hill lochs.

The surrounding countryside is ideal for walking or cycling, with nearby access to the 90-mile circular Kintyre Way. There is no shortage of scenic routes, as well as archaeological and historical sites of interest to explore.
