Nether Largie North Cairn

Highlight • Monument

Kilmartin village is quiet, remote and unassuming and hosts some of the most important neolithic and bronze age remains in the UK. They are older than the Egyptian pyramids and most likely built 5,000 years ago, so they say.

Visit the museum and cafe in the village to find out about the ancient history here, from the cairn burial mounds to the stone grave slabs.

Carnasserie Castle

Highlight • Viewpoint

Highly recommended if you are in the area. The visit to the castle is completely free and what surprised us most was how big it is.
