Car ferries run between Oban & Craignure (the main route), Lochaline (on Morvern) & Fishnish, and Kilchoan (on Ardnamurchan) & Tobermory.  All of these ferries are run by Caledonian MacBrayne (CalMac).  If you plan to use the Lochaline or Kilchoan ferries, be aware that you will normally wish to use the Corran-Ardgour ferry in order to cross onto the Morvern/Ardnamurchan peninsula - see www.lochabertransport.co.uk.

Early booking is advised if using the Oban ferry, and be aware that you must arrive at the ferry terminal at least 30 minutes before sailing time.  A late ferry runs from Oban all year round on Fridays (9.30pm in winter, and 10.30pm in summer).  The ferries from Lochaline and Kilchoan do not have a booking system, except that, for the last ferry in the day, you will normally be required to notify CalMac in advance (normally by 1600 on the day of travel) if you plan to use that ferry.  Full details of all ferries can be found at www.calmac.co.uk.

On arrival by ferry at Craignure, turn right on leaving the ferry terminal, and drive to Salen (10 miles).  (From Fishnish, follow the road for ¾ mile until you come to a T-junction, turn right onto the same main road and drive about 7 miles to Salen.)   Just before Aros Bridge, approximately 2 miles north of Salen, the road splits; bear left here for Dervaig (10 miles).  At Dervaig, turn left at the T junction adjacent to the Church (white-washed round tower) and follow the road to Calgary (5 miles).  Bulldog Cottage is the first of two white-washed cottages on the south (further) side of Calgary beach.
