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 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".[2]
The Blue Boy (film 1994)
The Blue Boy is centred around the storey of a four year old boy drowning in Loch Eck and haunting the Coylet Inn. Filmed on location at the Coylet Inn.[3] Starring Dame Emma Thompson and Adrian Dunbar, directed by Paul Murton.
gollark: Huh, I checked the Minitel L3 protocol docs and it apparently does rednet-style "routing" too.
gollark: See, that's very not ideal.
gollark: You don't have an accurate map, though, and you have devices which might randomly be moving around, or ones which drop out unexpectedly, or ones which can't hold much of a routing table due to limited RAM, or ones which are doing evil things.
gollark: It's not *just* a graph thing. If you had an accurate map of all the network connections it would be a relatively easy thing to route between nodes.
gollark: I heard that general mesh-network routing was extremely hard, so I ignored it and implemented something really stupid instead.
