Springbank Distillery is one of the main visitor attractions in Campbeltown, Kintyre. It is one of three distilleries remaining in Campbeltown which, in the 19th century, was classed as 'The Whisky Capital of the World'. Established in 1828, Springbank is the oldest independent family owned distillery in Scotland and is the only distillery in Scotland to carry out the full production process on one site - from the traditional floor maltings through to the bottling.

Lovely beach in a lovely place. Great for an invigorating stroll even on a windy day. Popular with windsurfers and the likes.

Myself and some friends went on a tour and whisky tasting here and had a blast. The tour guide was funny and informative, answering all our questions about the local area and the whisky making process. The building is tastefully decorated and kitted out so it feels modern and old fashioned all at once and the whisky we tasted at the end was so delicious I bought a bottle of the Victoriana to take home as well as a bottle of Double Cask for my parents, which they thoroughly appreciated as part of their Anniversary present. If I come back to Kintyre I will definitely be visiting Glen Scotia again.

A short walk up the hill from the harbour is the Royal Castle of Tarbert. Worth the short climb to see the views over the bay...and beyond on a good day. Worth a visit...

Great tour, well worth the price you pay for it, ferry, bus, ferry/boat, then boat/ferry depending on how it works out for you, we had get the ferry to Iona then the boat to Staffa, our driver Colin is very knowledgeable about Mull & a very curteous driver, getting through the tight bridges was impressive, I didn't realise until heading back for the ferry back to Oban that I have previously worked with Colin, it was really nice to see him again & really enjoyed listening to the stories of the Isle
