Coylet

Coylet is a hamlet on Loch Eck, on the Cowal Peninsula, in Argyll and Bute, West of Scotland.
The hamlet is within the Argyll Forest Park, which is itself within the Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park. It developed around the Coylet Inn, a coaching inn established in the 1650s located on the A815 road that leads to Dunoon, the main town on the peninsula.
The name may be derived from Gaelic caol ait, "narrow place".
