Paul's Farm

Can anyone tell me where in Scotland Paul's farm is located?
I am traveling to England and Scotland and want to live the Macca
Experience!

You might find it a limiting experience. :-) Paul's farm does not give
tours.
It's off the A83 on the lower Kintyre peninsula, about a four hour drive
from Inverary. High Park farm is on a private country road and you will
find it fenced and inaccessible. I suggest instead that you go into
Campbeltown, the main city in the area, sample the local color, food, and
single-malt whisky, and after you've been there a few days, drive down the
A842 to Southend and take the dirt road left to the Mull of Kintyre. You
can see the coast of Ireland on a clear day; watch out for the sheep and
the other Macca fans making their pilgrimages. :-)
It's a lovely place and a beautiful part of the world. Try to enjoy it as
Paul would---discreetly, politely, and passionately.

Paul's Scottish farm is located on the Mull of Kintyre on the
west coast, across from Ireland. Get a map and look for the
city of "Campbelltown" in Scotland...that's the largest town
near to the farm. A "mull" is another name for a peninsula.
Good luck if you plan to drive there...it will probably take you 2
full days from London. It's a very remote area and there is no
easy way to get there.

A slight correction: Paul's High Park farm is located just slightly
northwest of Campbeltown. which is about a half hour's drive from the
actual Mull of Kintyre. The Mull itself is the actual promontory at the
very end of the Kintyre peninsula, where the lighthouse stands.

There's a small airport at Machrihanish, on the bay due west of
Campbeltown, which is how Paul flies in and out of the region, but I'm not
sure if it's private or commercial. If the latter, you could probably fly
in from any of the northern airports. But I recommend the drive too, and
don't rush it. Stop in Liverpool on your way up. :-) The drive down the
Kintyre peninsula is beautiful.
