Ferry Travel
Three ferry routes lead to this area.
Coming from Glasgow/Edinburgh, continue on the M8 to Greenock, then one option is to follow the A78 south to Ardrossan and take a ferry to Brodick on the Isle of Arran. Turn right and follow the A841 to Lochranza, where another ferry is available to Claonaig (summer only – see Caledonian MacBrayne website www.calmac.co.uk for details). From Claonaig you have the choice of the faster A83, in which case you follow signs for Tarbert and then turn left onto the A83 as mentioned above. Or alternatively, you could follow the B842 south via Carradale to Campbeltown. This route includes single track roads and is unsuitable if you are in a hurry! Please note that the ferry from Ardrossan to Brodick should be booked in advance.
Alternatively you could use either Caledonian MacBrayne Ferry from Gourock to Dunoon Town, or Western Ferries (www.westernferries.co.uk) from McInroy's Point, on the outskirts of Gourock, to Hunter's Quay, between Dunoon and Sandbank. For both ferries, follow A87 from Greenock in a westerly direction. In both cases, turn right and follow A815 north. In Sandbank turn left to Tighnabruiach. Follow the A8003 south to Portavadie, take the ferry (Calmac) over to Tarbert. Stay on the A83 along the coast until you reach Campbeltown. This is the main road and allows faster travel.
The Kintyre Express (www.kintyreexpress.com) passenger ferry links Troon and Campbeltown every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, covering the 32 mile sea passage in approx. one hour. Contact us for collection from the pier by hotel vehicle or taxi.
From Kintyre, onward ferry travel to Islay, Gigha and Colonsay is also available, in addition to the routes mentioned above – see www.calmac.co.uk |
