Directions & Location:-
Breakachy House is located on the outskirts of the village of Kilkenzie, Kintyre. Driving from Campbeltown, from the junction of Longrow South and Main Street in the town centre, drive up Longrow until you reach the 30 mile town limit sign. Drive on this road (A83) for approximately 2 miles. You will then reach the village of Kilkenzie. Drive through the village and you will see a sign for Tangy pointing to the next turning on the right. Take this right turn onto a single track road, drive for approximately one mile and on the right you will see a sign for "Dalnaspidal" guest house. Turn right here on to a loose stone road and drive for 75 metres. Take the next left and carry on for 75 metres, and Breackachy House is the detached building on the right hand side.
It is surrounded by a wealth of natural beauty and is only 1 mile to the beach at "Tangy", approximately 11 miles to Machrihanish Golf Course and approximately 4 miles from Campbeltown Airport. This area is very popular not only with golfers, traveling from all parts of the world to try out the famous 1st Tee, but also with surfers who find the current of the Atlantic most challenging. An area of outstanding natural beauty, with its own micro climate and in 2006 seen the opening of the Kintyre Way, a new challenge with walkers.
