Seafood Cabin - Argyll Bute

During our recent visit to Kintyre, we dined at this restaurant twice. We tried the oysters, langoustines, king scallops, and gravadlax, and we highly recommend everything.

I visited this restaurant on a lovely sunny day and enjoyed dining outside at the picnic bench with fantastic views of Arran and Skipness Castle. The scallops in garlic butter were delicious and came with fresh salad and bread. Overall, this place is a hidden gem, but the only downside is that there isn't much menu choice for kids.

If you ever find yourself on the Kintyre Caledonian Macbraynes ferry from Lochranza on the Isle of Arran, instead of heading back to Tarbert, turn right and follow the road along Loch Fyne towards Skipness Castle. Don't be fooled by the castle, the real treasure is the seafood cabin outside! Forget about the history for a moment and indulge in the fresh mussels. We were served by a friendly lady who may have had some facial hair, but her mussels were amazing. They were cooked in a creamy white wine sauce and paired perfectly with a basket of bread. For the non-mussel lovers, there was a cheese bap available. The seafood selection was a bit pricey but included king and queen scallops, although they were overshadowed by the magnificent mussels. The best part was the view from our picnic-style table, overlooking the loch between Kintyre and Arran, with the sunset casting a beautiful glow over the fields. Pair it with a pricey but good bottle of cold Sancerre and you'll wonder why you don't live in the countryside. Highly recommended, don't wait, go there now. (Castle visit optional)

Great restaurant with excellent location and great food quality. Only criticism would be the staff could be a bit more engaging ! It wasn’t so busy at beginning of service to expect Smile or light conversation Would have been the icing on the cake

Amazing as always. Once you fined this place you will always remember it. The king scallops in particular were awesome. Great service. Quality food. Friendly staff. Few places on Kintyre as good.
