West Tarbert Off The Beaten Path Tips by scottishvisitor

KILBERRY

I had read about the Kilberry Inn it seemed like a very nice place to have an evening meal. We connected to the single track road a little way south of Ardishaig - this proved a big mistake but not a tourist trap. The sign post to the B8024 showed Kilberry a mere twelve miles. Oh what a long and winding road this turned out to be. When we eventually got to Kilberry there was a shop - closed and a Primary School and a scattering of crofts nothing more. Driving a little further we discovered the Kilberry Inn a pleasant looking white building with a red iron roof. The only problem we had with the Inn was that it was not open. Kilberry is located in the district of Knapdale. We travelled the whole coastal route from its sea board side back to the shores of Loch Fyne. I was delighted we had taken this long road to nowhere. As I have mentioned before - Kenny is an A to B person so we kept travelling this oh so lonely road heading back towards Tarbert. Well in the end there was a positive point we finally stopped at Loch Caolisport (thanks to Nick & Chris for the correction here) which was deserted apart from a lone seal happily basking in the evening sunshine and the pattern of Islands decorating the sea.
