An Tigh Ur is beside the shore in Kintra. It comfortably sleeps 2-10 people. The open plan interior give a luxurious feeling of comfort and light, while the huge windows have wonderful views of seascapes and skies as well as the daily activities on the croft. We keep a small flock of Jacob sheep, hens, and we grow a variety of vegetables and fruit in a sheltered valley. We sell our produce, preserves, eggs, and meat directly from our small shop. Visitors are welcome to explore the croft and gardens; five minutes' walk takes you to a wild rocky coastline of pink granite; five minutes' drive to a choice of pristine sandy beaches and Fionnphort - from where boats run to the isles of Iona and Staffa.
By road from Craignure to An Tigh Ur – turn left from the ferry and continue along single track road A849 for approximately one hour, passing through villages of Pennyghael and Bunessan. Four miles beyond Bunessan, take a righthand turn, signposted to Kintra. After 2 miles turn right at a notice for ‘The Crofters’ Kitchen and Gardens’. Go past 2 cottages and over a cattle grid. Nigel and Rosie are in the house near the wind turbines and croft shop.
