If you're in Ardfern don't leave without visiting Lizzie and Philip's studio! It's in the centre of the village just opposite the school. Both exceptionally talented, Lizzie Rose is a Scottish Contemporary artist and Philip Price is the founder of Loch Visions and an award winning wildlife photographer. Paintings, drawings, photographs and cards will be on display and for sale. With the travel ban across Scotland set to be lifted earlier than expected on this coming Friday 16th April, the Ardfern chandlery and offices will now be fully staffed at weekends once again. The latest welcome announcement from the Scottish Government has made it clear that people will be able to travel across Scotland as long as they do not stay overnight. Restrictions on travel to and from Scotland with other parts of the UK, are also now expected to be lifted from Monday 26th April. At that time overnight stays on boats are expected to be permitted for all customers from single households. As the chandlery cannot fully reopen until ‘non essential retail’ is permitted to resume in Scotland on 26th April, they will continue to offer their ‘click and collect’ service for all items. If you would like cleaning products, antifouling, anodes, engine spares or any other chandlery items putting aside for collection now or for reserving for you when you arrive, please contact the chandlery on 01852 500247 or email office@ardfernyacht.co.uk Office and chandlery opening times for collections, along with gas and diesel services on Saturday and Sunday will be from 9am to 5pm, while week day opening times remain as 8.30am to 5pm. https://www.ardfernyacht.co.uk/  Craobh Haven Watersports are looking for an enthusiastic person to help run their seasonal Cafe and Watersports business. The role will predominantly be cooking and serving in the cafe. Wages will depend on experience, basic accommodation can be provided, local applicants welcome. A great opportunity! Applications via their Facebook page   This is a photo from last year of our treasured ofspreys. Thanks to Lindsay of Craignish Cruises for keeping us updated, we look forward to spotting them sometime soon flying over Loch Craignish. Lindsay knows where to find them so its well worth considering a boat trip, you might even spot whales, dolphins and seals too, just to name a few of the amazing wildlife on our shores.
Look how beautiful our seagrass meadows are in Loch Craignish, easily accessible from many of our tucked away beaches. Thanks to Iris Bevan for taking and sharing these photos last summer. Loch Craignish has ten small seagrass meadows, totalling approx. 1 hectare, and while these seem dense and healthy, they are isolated and fragmented. Over fifty species of fish have been recorded in one meadow along with hundreds of species of invertebrates such as molluscs, shrimp and marine worms. Seagrass is also an important carbon sink as it sequesters carbon thirty-five times faster than rainforest. However, owing to pollution and disturbance of habitat, 95% of the UK’s seagrass meadows have disappeared (Source: Ocean Seagrass Rescue). Local charity Seawilding hopes to start seagrass restoration in Loch Craignish next year, trialing Scotland’s first community-led seagrass restoration at Loch Craignish. Scottish Fire and Rescue Service is warning of an ‘EXTREME’ risk of wildfire is in place across Scotland's west coastal and island areas. Despite snow and freezing conditions across central / eastern Scotland, fuel conditions are very different on the west coast. Please exercise caution.
