The Ardfern village amenities are a short walk away, and these include a well-stocked village store, café, village hall, popular marina and local hotel. Lochgilphead is circa 15.8 miles to the south with a midi sized Co-op supermarket which easily caters for a fuller weekly shop.

For the outdoor enthusiast, the area is well served by a fine and extensive range of sporting and outdoor pursuits.
Ardfern has a marina and chandlery, popular with west coast sailors with a second marina at nearby Craobh Haven. Both offer a perfect base from which to sail in some of the most scenic and testing waters in the United Kingdom.
Surrounding mountains and glens provide opportunities by permission for rough and driven game shooting, with stalking and salmon fishing again by permission, available within a short drive on numerous local estates.
