Ardnamurchan is a paradise for birdwatchers, walkers, geologists, and just about anybody else who wants to get away from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

Historic castles, wild hills, unspoilt white sands and ancient oak woodland: all come together in this wonderful corner of the Western Highlands. Visit the furthest west point of mainland Britain. Will you see otter, pine marten, golden eagle or even the elusive sea eagle?

• Ariundle Oakwood: just outside our front door, and a lovely place to spend an afternoon
• Castle Tioram: a magical ruined castle on a tiny islet
• Sanna Bay: high dunes and long white sands
• The point: a lighthouse, exhibition centre and cafe at the most westerly point of mainland Britain
• Beinn Hiant: magnificent 360 degree views
