Summary
Ostel Bay on the Cowal Peninsula is simply stunning. This crescent-shaped sweep of sand is the jewel in the crown of Argyll’s Secret Coast. Walk over the dunes and the beach stretches out ahead of you with Arran on the horizon. On a sunny day it’s the perfect place to spend the day, paddling, sunbathing and swimming. To get there, you walk down the track by Kilbride Farm for 15 minutes. There's a small cafe/takeaway at the farm. There is limited toilet facilities and parking. Ask us for more information. The beach is approximately 40 miles from the St Ives Hotel.
