Shore Cottage is a gorgeous location for a stay in Kintyre.
Shore Cottage is a gorgeous location for a stay in Kintyre. The shore couldn't be any nearer and the sunsets are amazing when you have clear skies. The location is very peaceful and there are a group of seals who are often on the rocks and in the water, which is just lovely.The cottage is full of character and it's cozy and clean.This was our second visit and we would return again if we can.
