Are you the owner of Plockton Bowling Club?
Bowling Club is an integral part of the Plockton community, offering a fun and social environment for locals and visitors alike. Located in the picturesque village of Plockton, situated on a sheltered bay of Loch Carron, the club is surrounded by stunning natural beauty, with panoramic views of the sea and mountains.
As a National Trust for Scotland conservation village, Plockton has preserved its rich heritage while still providing modern facilities for tourists. The village itself is centred around Harbour Street, where visitors can find a range of amenities. Plockton Stores is a small but well-stocked shop catering to self-catering visitors, while Plockton Craft Shop offers a selection of gifts, confectionery, and drinks. The Studio showcases local and international crafts, and Leisure Marine provides maritime curios and more.
Visitors can also explore Lochalsh Knitters for local knitwear. For additional shopping needs, Kyle of Lochalsh, just a ten-minute drive away, offers a post office, banks, a supermarket, and other shops and facilities.
When it comes to dining, Plockton boasts an array of options highlighting fresh local produce. The Plockton Hotel and the Plockton Inn offer lunch and dinner menus with excellent reviews. Both establishments welcome children and cater to vegetarian and vegan diets. For a quick meal, visitors can head to The Harbour Fish Bar, a fish and chip shop open from April to October.
Takeaway options can also be found in nearby Kyle of Lochalsh. Those looking to prepare their own meals will find a wide variety of quality foodstuffs at Plockton Stores, along with a good selection of wines, beers, and spirits. Additionally, fresh prawns can be purchased directly from local fishermen at the pier, and a fish van delivers produce to the village on a weekly basis. Locally-sourced eggs can be obtained from Rowan Barn Farm near the village's aerodrome.
Beer enthusiasts can sample the local ale from Plockton's own miniature/microbrewery, available on tap at the Plockton Inn or in bottles from various local establishments.
For those seeking outdoor activities, Plockton offers plenty of options. In July and August, visitors can enjoy the annual Plockton Regatta, featuring races for visiting boats as well as traditional Plockton clinker boats. Spectators can witness the intense competition and strategy as boats vie for pole position. The village and its surrounding areas also provide numerous walking routes that showcase the natural beauty of the area.
