Tayinloan (Scottish Gaelic: Taigh an Lòin, pronounced [t̪ɤj ə ˈl̪ˠɔːɲ]) is a village situated on the west coast of the Kintyre peninsula in Argyll and Bute, Scotland.
There is a cafe bar situated beside the ferry car park which also offers self-catering or bed and breakfast accommodation.
A ferry service runs between the village and Ardminish on the Isle of Gigha.
The A83 road runs through the village, as does a long-distance footpath, the Kintyre Way, a walk of some 106 mi (171 km), stretching between Tarbert, Loch Fyne and Southend at the Mull of Kintyre.
His following book The Druids Of Pneuma is largely inspired by the beaches, then finally The Tavern On Gallows Hill for the American series Savage Realms were also written here.
