Located at the north-east corner of the Kintyre Peninsula, overlooking the sea, Skipness Castle is right in the middle of a working farm close to farm buildings. It is also easily reachable on a day-trip from Arran by taking the ferry from Lochranza over Kilbrannan Sound to the mainland.

A detailed history of this Campbell home is given on the Clan Campbell Page.
