Geographically, the Kintyre peninsula is
long and narrow, at no point more than 11
miles (18 km) from west coast to east coast.
The central spine of the peninsula is mostly
hilly moorland. The coastal areas and
hinterland, however, are rich and fertile.
As such, Kintyre has long been a prized area
for settlers, from the early Scots who
migrated from Ulster to western Scotland and
the Vikings or Norsemen who conquered and
settled the area just before the start of
the second millennium
