Kilchoan is the most Westerly Village on the Ardnamurchan Peninsula in fact, it is the most westerly point on mainland Britain. Ardnamurchan has some of the most spectacular scenery in Scotland surrounded by rugged mountains, sea lochs, coastlines and sandy beaches as well as an abundance of wildlife with the majestic red deer, golden and white-tailed sea eagles all in the vicinity. The landscape is ideal for hill and coastal walking, with walks to the summit of Ben Hiant which reaches to just 528m the highest point on the peninsula providing superb views. Other places of interest are the beautiful coastline of Sanna Bay and the Ardnamurchan Lighthouse point where Dolphin, Porpoise and Minke Whale are regularly seen.
Although Kilchoan is a remote setting, there are amenities in the village that include a well stocked shop and post office, a Hotel which has a bar and restaurant, a church, a well-respected primary school and community centre. This is an established and vibrant community, many of whom support and engage in various activities at the hall and church. Activities include regular coffee mornings and lunches, fitness, yoga and badminton classes, craft, knitting and a book club to name but a few. When activities are all done you can visit the Puffin Coffee, a family run coffee shop serving a bespoke fair-trade, organic coffee and sweet treats.
