Tourist Trap: Winter Closing Times

I had read a fair bit on attractions in and around Argyll before we went and did notice there were a lot of gardens scattered around the area. It wasn't much of a surprise to learn they are all closed during November through to April. What I didn't expect was to see the hotel bars and restaurants had winter closing times - this meant from approximately 14.30 after lunch until 19.00 you couldn't even get a cup of coffee. I suppose it all comes down to the winter season with few tourists around spending money these places could not afford the wages bill for idle staff.

At Least Do This: At least the scenery is always open and going with the weather always changing. You can always fill a thermos flask with some tea and/or coffee and take it with you to drink in the car.

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. | Nemorino Wed Apr 1, 2009 20:02 UTC
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. | volopolo Mon Mar 16, 2009 09:51 UTC

The tiny Kilmartin village reminds me of my good old days where people and neighbors share almost anything. From food to harvests and they help each other full of sincerity. |
