If you don't want to do anything too strenous there are many lovely places to visit to which you can drive, we would recommend:
- A drive to Ardnamurchan Lighthouse, the most westerly point in mainland Britain
- Nadura (formally Ardnamurchan Natural History Centre)
- Ardnamurchan Distillery at Glenmore
- Ardnamurchan Charters wildlife boat trips
- Sanna Bay, a beautiful sandy beach on the Northern coast
- Eagle watch cruises on Loch Shiel
- Ard Arigh wildlife hide
- Resipole Studios Art Gallery
- Castle Tioram and Beach
If you would like to travel further afield the town of Oban is well worth the drive, it has beautiful independant shops and great resaurants. Also getting the ferry from Kilchoan to Tobermory (of Balamory fame) is a great day out especially if you have younger children, we would highly recommend lunch at Cafe Fish on the harbour and pudding from the chocolate shop!
