General Tips: Things which made us smile here in Argyll
  • Tip Rating:
  • Favorite Thing: Encountering the sheep not in a field this time or roaming free this one was captured close to home. He had his own kennel close by his house and was happy to trot forward to have a chat with me. I did think Green Coloured Phone Boxes belonged in Ireland - but here in Argyll in a very remote spot I did discover this rare sight red phone boxes are still a favoured around here - the modern ones look so out of place. Mind the gap sounds like London but this was our only entry - make sure you can squeeze through. It's a Forgone Conclustion you will encounter some boats here Argyll has more water than land. The fire station and its palm trees - although Argyll is warmed by the Altlantic Gulf Stream this far West the Palms are a pleasant surprise.

    Fondest Memory: I will be back to add to my memories here in Argyll which is fast enticing me to explore her hidden depth

     My paternal grandmother was a Kilmartin, and this is one place she always wanted to go. I may yet do it for her! Susan

     It looks so lovely and tranquil. The swans and Carnasserie Castle makes the land looks mystical. My mom ancestry is from this part of the world. Thanks for sharing it with me.

     Me again, coming back to have a look at the new tips, updates and travelogues that you have added to this page since my first visit on March 2, 2008. I like the looks of those Old Stone & Slate houses.
