Gigha is only seven miles long, and its paths are perfect to explore by bike and on foot. Check out our posts at @gighahouse on Instagram. The magnificent Victorian tropical-style gardens of Achamore House are open to the public, and only a ten minute walk from the house. There are standing stones, ancient sites, and a network of well-maintained paths around the island. the island is famous for the Twin Beaches, at the North end, two crescents of white sand with dunes in between.The village of Ardminish is a 20 minute ferry ride from Tayinloan on the Mull of Kintyre, and the Caledonian MacBrayne ferry runs almost every hour - check timetables.
