• Dogs must always be kept on a leash 

• Please use our doggie waste bins around the sites

If you have your heart set on a specific holiday home, speak to our reservations team to see what they can do for you – subject to availability. There is a £35 fee to ensure a “no move” guarantee.

While our caravans are premier, you’d struggle to fit a cot into the bedrooms. If you are bringing a cot, we’d recommend keeping it in the living area – however there are other options for more sizable accommodation at most of our parks – feel free to ask our reservations team at time of booking.

Cycling is one of the best ways to explore the local area, whether you’re looking for an epic road route, or something a little more family friendly in and around the villages. You can find more info about local bike hire here.

Packing for a holiday is always difficult, but even more so when you’ve got a wee one on board. Cots and highchairs are available for hire at a £10 charge per item per stay.

We sell ferry tickets at £17 (single) or £34 (return) – which covers one car plus five people.

Collection is free from Hunters Quay Holiday Village, or you can purchase home delivery for £3.

You can also purchase reduced-price tickets at “Paul’s Food & Wine” in Gourock.

Of course! Although inconvenient, you can still get to Drimsynie if the road is shut. There are three alternative routes that we suggest: 

• Ferry - There is an increased service on the Western Ferries Gourock-Hunters Quay crossing during road closures. On exiting the ferry terminal at Hunters Quay, turn right onto the A815 through Strachur & St Catherines before taking a right on to Hells Glen (B839). 

Absolutely. We always encourage visitors to take plenty of snaps whilst on their holiday. Be sure to tag us on social media too, @argyllholidays.

Please bear in mind that we don’t allow guests to film or take photographs in our swimming pool areas.

While you’re with us, you may spot a TV camera or professional photographer. We could be shooting photos, video or maybe even filming a TV show. We’ll try to make sure the filming doesn’t affect your holiday and that you always know what’s going on. With this agreement, you give us the rights to anything containing your image that’s shot while you’re with us. This doesn’t affect your own photos or videos of course!

If you don’t want to be in the shot, please try to stay away from the filming area, and if you or someone in your family does stray into a photo or video without meaning to, we’ll do our best to remove the image from our library.

We provide dedicated BBQ slabs for you to enjoy at Drimsynie Estate and Hunters Quay.
