This is one of three Nether Largie cairns in a line down the valley from the Glebe cairn which is just behind the Kilmartin Museum. You can park there and walk through the field to the path at the back or park further south and walk back. If I hadn't seen other people going inside, I would not have realised that you were allowed to. Normally they just don't let you get this close to pre-history, let alone climb all over it and inside it. A fence protects you from the horse in the field around it, though it looked friendly enough.
