...BOATING & FISHING
In the bay below the hotel there is an old stone boat house. There are boats for fishing, sailing or simply exploring the many islands, crannogs, ruined castles and holy places of Loch Awe, including Ardanaiseig's private island, Eilean a Chomlraidh.
Fishing tackle is available and there is a small trout lochan for fly casting. Salmon, pike, trout, char and perch abound.

...CROQUET
Afternoon tea can be served on the croquet lawn. The implements for this apparently dignified but actually most vicious of games are available on request.

...THE GRAND TOUR
Ardanaiseig is an excellent staging post for touring the Highlands and Islands. Loch Ness, the victorian port of Oban with its regular ferries to Skye, Mull, Iona and the Outer Islands, and Loch Lomond are all within easy reach. In winter when the snow is good, there is skiing at Glen Coe and Ben Nevis.
