My interest in Campbelltown was where my ancestor left Scotland for PEI, Canada aboard the ship Annabella in 1770. The family settled in Moncton, New Brunswick.

I love Campbeltown my favourite place to visit. I miss Southend beach. ❤

[@barryhamilton7845]

In another year or two when the other whisky distilleries are built, Campbeltown is going to be alot busier I think,and more people are going to be going there.Campbeltown will increase in size over the next 10-20 year.

[@ManselKersey]

A tremendous town, that will give you a warm welcome.

What’s the long drive down there like? How’s the scenery and is there anything to see/do on the drive?

[@VultureSunset]

No, it's a horrible town

@@VultureSunset Ah shucks, there goes my next long weekend break :(

[@VultureSunset]

@thecabooseattheendofthetra9260 there's many nicer places in Scotland you could visit buddy, Campbeltown is wet and dull and full of nosey people last thing you need on your holidays is people spying on you wanting to know your life story.

[@thedonlife3411]

can anyone tell me why property price is so low in Campbeltown?

[@agnik9163]

because it is truly middle of nowhere and far away from anywhere

[@barryhamilton7845]

But now is the time to be buying houses because over the next couple of year there will be two new whisky distilliries built taking it to five in the area and this will only bring more people and buisness to Campbeltown. The place will be a whisky destination more than it is now. Its git pritty much all that you need from a couple of supermarkets to all other amenities. It is far out,but if you have all you need, then its a great wee place to be. And as I said over the next few year its going to be a lot more busy solely just for whisky and all the people it brings from around the world. Campbeltown has one of the most sought after whiskies in it...Springbank!!

[@VultureSunset]

Because the place is a utter shithole, pardon the swearing but there's the other way to describe it, it's terrible

[@VultureSunset]

@agnik9163 horrible wet depressing isolated town

[@VultureSunset]

Don't go to Campbeltown unless you want the whole town knowing your buisness and staring at you out of cars watching your every move

[@hannahhouston8825]

I can't understand Scottish at all

[@VultureSunset]

Thus is campbeltonian 🧟‍♂️🧟‍♂️😭

[@barryhamilton7845]

I can't understand Spanish or German.

[@VultureSunset]

Is this a joke? The place is a dump.

[@jasonjames6870]

Troll?

[@mountain_del1863]

Of course it's a troll. The town is a wee bit tired, but in the age of " out of town shopping", internet, Amazon and Covid, its still a handsome wee town in the summer❤......and the peninsula ([Knapdale and Kyntyre) is God's back garden.......it's utterly gorgeous. ❤

[@VultureSunset]

@mountain_del1863 are you for real, most nosey place in the UK. The place is a joke and that's coming from someone that was born here and lived here for over 20 years I think I should know

[@mountain_del1863]

@@VultureSunset do you live in the town now?

[@mountain_del1863]

@@VultureSunset also, "Nosey place"? What does that mean exactly? In a time when you have gangs of Neds roaming the place, drugs, buckfast, ket, MDMH, tranq, knives, young teams.......is Campbelltown really that bad?
