If you're interested in neolithic sites, this is un-missable. We only had a couple hours, and want to go back for a few days. After Orkney and the important sites in Ireland, Kilmartin Glen is cruc…Full review by ashersophie
We are coming from USA, and have planned to take the bridge from Skye and drive to Kilmartin. Is this a good plan? Husband is comfortable driving on the left! We have two nights planned in Kilmartin. That means one full day. We love history, (and pre-history) churches, nature, etc. We also don't like to rush through things. Do we need to add another night to our itinerary? Any comments/suggestions are welcome. We will probably never get back to Kilmartin, so this is once in a lifetime.

If you can allow another day, or even two, because the beautiful remoteness of this area makes for slow travelling. Some of the roads maybe single track. We travelled to Kilmartin from Inveraray and if you have time, a night's stay in Inveraray would reward you with a romantic castle and a beautiful historic town on the shores of Loch Fyne. The journey from Inveraray to Glasgow is fairly straightforward driving.
Is there any reasonable way to get from Glasgow to Kilmartin without private car?

Hi I'm sorry I cant tell you! We went by car from near Edinburgh. I do hope you manage to go it is a magical place....you'll feel it if you get there ...Good Luck!
With limited time and must see spots such as Loch Lomond (long story) what is the best way to see this area? we have a rental car but happy to stay a night somewhere. Basing ourselves just out of Edinburgh 3 days only. Thanks.

Hi most of the sites are close together so can be viewed in a day. If you are based near Edinburgh then it would be best if you booked a night in the Kilmartin area. We stayed at Keenan House in Glassery very near Kilmartin. It was B&B in a nice house on a country estate the owners are very nice and accommodation is good for one night! The Kilmartin museum is well worth a visit and they do great homemade food for a lunch! Hope this is helpful and you enjoy the sightseeing!
