Ardnamurchan, Moidart, Morvern, Sunart and Ardgour form the area in and around the most westerly point of the British Mainland. It is a beautiful, remote and unspoilt place in the Scottish Highlands. The ideal place to relax and get away from it all.

Jutting out into the Atlantic Ocean on the North West Coast of Scotland, it is a land of rugged mountains, stunning coastlines, beautiful lochs, historic castles, amazing night skies, ancient woodlands and heather moorland.

Steeped in history and Celtic legends, it remains unspoilt to this day and once visited, it is a place that will be forever in your heart.

If you have only just discovered us, welcome to the best kept secret in the British Isles, and we can't wait to share it with you. If you are returning to this wonderful unspoilt part of Scotland, then welcome back.

Stay at Home - Protect the NHS - Save Lives

Coronavirus (COVID-19) Advice

Given the seriousness of coronavirus pandemic, many of our members had, in recent days, made the difficult decision to close their businesses in order to protect our community and persuade potential visitors to defer their visits to a later date so that they do not expose themselves to unnecessary risk.

However, despite these business closing, some visitors were still arriving, and many residents were getting more and more concerned about the pressures that this might put our community and NHS Highland under. But now, following the UK and Scottish Governments announcements on 23 March, the guidance is clear. We must all stay at home to protect the NHS and save lives. We urge you all to do this and to not travel here unnecessarily.

You can get the most up-to-date information on COVID-19 in Scotland at the Scottish Government website.

Please stay safe and please stay at home. In the meantime, we will continue to share our stories and pictures with you all and very much hope to be able to welcome you back to the West Highland Peninsulas when it is safe to do so.

West Highland Peninsulas

Ardgour

As the main gateway to the West Highland Peninsulas, Ardgour is where the Ferry crosses the Corran Narrows to transport visitors our visitors to this beautiful, remote and unspoilt corner of the Scottish Highlands

Ardnamurchan

Ardnamurchan is probably the most remote of the West Highland Peninsulas. It is home to the most westerly point on the British Mainland. Its southern edge runs along beautiful Loch Sunart and its northern edge features a dramatic coastline and wonderful beaches, such as the one at Sanna Bay.

Moidart

The West Highland Peninsula of Moidart is a wild and beautiful place, designated as a National Scenic Area for its outstanding scenery and landscape, and steeped in history. Home to Castle Tioram, a 13th Century fortress and described by Winston Churchill as one of the most beautiful places he knew.

Morvern

The West Highland Peninsula of Morvern is one of the few places in the UK that has hardly been touched by modern life and because of a lack of human intervention, it boasts a great diversity of animals, birds and flowers.

Sunart

The West Highland Peninsula of Sunart is home to one of the best surviving remnants of the ancient Atlantic oak forest which once clothed most of the west coast of Scotland.
