Kingarth Tourist Information

Argyll and Bute

Kingarth is the centre of the farming community in the south of the Isle of Bute. The village is at a crossroads, not only of routes but also of history. A short drive from here is a mysterious standing stone circle from the Bronze Age, the Dunagoil vitrified fort from the Iron Age and early Christian monastic remains dedicated to St. Blane who was born on the island.
