Situated on the Isle of Bute, in the Firth of Clyde off the West Coast of Scotland. Bute is an area of outstanding natural beauty and is the most accessible of all the Scottish Islands. There are two regular ferry services to the island from Wemyss Bay, near to Glasgow and from Colintraive on the Argyll peninsula. Bute can be an activity based experience if you desire. Diving, walking, swimming, cycling, fishing, shooting, sailing and golf are amongst the activities on offer. It has also seen an explosion of quirky eateries, including an American diner with live entertainment, an authentic Italian, a French Moroccan bistro as well as traditional Inns offering Scottish fare.

The island has also seen a wealth of new niche businesses in recent years. Bute hosts many festivals through out the year such as the highland games, jazz festival, Bute Noir book festival, LGBT pride march, classic car rallies and Bute Song to name a few. Bute has seen a surge in recent years of folks looking for a lifestyle change by relocating to the Island and travelling to the mainland for work. Excellent broadband access also means working from home on the Island is possible.

Ideally positioned for easy access to the seafront and less than a half-mile walk to the ferry terminal. Situated on the town's high street, the flat is close by to many amenities such as shops, restaurants and more. The property has the potential to be used as a holiday let as the 'staycation' option has become increasingly popular.
