Having lost her struggle to reclaim the throne, she fled south, hoping for refuge in England. Along the way, she is believed to have passed through the Cothouse Inn, a historic lodging near the River Eachaig in Argyll. The Cothouse Inn, a well-known stop for travelers, is said to have provided a brief sanctuary for Mary as she and her supporters moved through the region. This secluded location, surrounded by rugged Scottish landscapes and the flowing River Eachaig, offered a temporary place of rest before she continued her perilous journey south. The river itself, winding through the forests of Argyll, may have played a crucial role in aiding her escape, providing a natural route through the terrain while also offering fresh water and cover from potential pursuers. Legend has it that Mary, exhausted from her ordeal, rested at the Cothouse Inn, possibly under disguise, with only a few loyal followers by her side. Given the inn’s position along established travel routes, it would have been a strategic yet discreet stopping point. The River Eachaig, flowing nearby, would have added to the inn’s secluded charm, making it an ideal refuge during her hurried escape. Though there is little concrete evidence linking Mary directly to the Cothouse Inn, oral history and local folklore strongly suggest that she passed through the area. Some even claim she left behind a small token or piece of jewelry, which became part of the inn’s legend. After leaving the region, Mary eventually made it to Workington in England, where she sought protection from Queen Elizabeth I—a decision that ultimately led to nineteen years of imprisonment and her execution in 1587. Today, the Cothouse Inn and the River Eachaig remain part of local history, their connection to Mary Queen of Scots adding a layer of intrigue and romance to the landscape. Whether fact or legend, the idea of Mary pausing along the banks of the River Eachaig during her escape only deepens the mystery surrounding her fateful journey. ********* HISTORY ********* ***RECENT NEARBY PROPERTY SALES*** - Rhubeg, Midge Lane, Strone, Dunoon, Argyll, PA23 8RX - 8 bedroom - SOLD Nov'24 - £1,100,000 - Duart Tower, Shore Road, Blairemore, Dunoon, Argyll, PA23 8TJ - 5 bedroom - SOLD Sep'24 - £627,032 - 23, Kings Hut, Victoria Road, Hunters Quay, Dunoon, Argyll, PA23 8JY - SOLD Aug'24 - £502,000 Dunoon is the main town on the Cowal peninsula, with a population of roughly 8,000 – making it one of the largest towns in Argyll and Bute, second only to Helensburgh.
