The wind carries the call of curlews across the headland, and when you step outside your pod in the morning, you're looking straight out over wild Atlantic water.

Coillabus Cottage offers camping pods and chalets for those who want a roof overhead but still crave that rawness of place — walkers tackling coastal paths, couples chasing dark skies and solitude, anyone drawn to Scotland's western edge rather than its honeypots. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so you can bring your four-legged hiking companion along for the adventure. This is proper island or highland territory, the kind of spot where weather dictates the day and you're grateful for solid walls come nightfall.

Facilities aren't spelled out in detail, so it's worth asking ahead what's onsite and what you'll need to bring. Campfires may be possible — check when you arrive, as conditions and seasons vary. The vibe here is remote and elemental: you come for the landscape, the quiet, and the kind of escape that doesn't need a long list of extras.

Three Distilleries Pathway

Wanders 5.5km through Bushmills connecting three historic whiskey distilleries on mostly flat, paved paths with short gentle inclines. Suitable for families and buggies on the main sections, though some distillery approaches may have cobbles or steps. Dogs welcome on leads throughout. Combines industrial heritage with coastal countryside views, plus the chance to peek at (or tour) working distilleries along the way—ideal for mixing culture with fresh air.
