About Kirn

Kirn is a charming village located on the Cowal Peninsula in Argyll and Bute, situated along the west shore of the Firth of Clyde. It has seamlessly integrated into the urban landscape between Dunoon and Hunters Quay, near Holy Loch. Historically, Kirn boasted its own pier, featuring buildings designed by Harry Edward Clifford in 1895, and served as a popular stop for Clyde steamer services, attracting holidaymakers primarily from Glasgow. This rich history may influence current planning applications in the area.
