It is steeped in a family history, unconventional approaches to design and magical and almost unbelievable stories that surprise and delight those of every age.
​
From the road the Kirk gives few clues about the amazing architecture both inside and out. It is exceptional both in style and surroundings, with a strong sense of peace and inherent spirituality.

Although one of the most popular visitor attractions in Argyll, the surprising size of the Kirk means that there are days when you can feel you have the place all to yourself.
​
Designed and built by Walter Douglas-Campbell, the Kirk is unique in having an example of almost every style of church architecture.
​
There is a surprise at every turn! In addition, Walter commissioned some of the finest craftsmen to help decorate the interior. The lochside gardens offer stunning views over the Loch.
