A beautiful natural harbour. The walk is easy going with a few steep parts. Total walk time would be approx 2 hours, through shady trees and the odd waterfall on the way.

Great for a day trip. Take the local ferry from Portavadie, no need for the car if you just fancy a walk around the harbour. The best place to get the finest seafood on Loch Fyne.

Mount Stuart is situated on the Isle of Bute so you get a lovely ferry trip on your visit to the house. A Historic Scotland must see!

A great historic building with beautiful gardens to walk around and a café for a spot of lunch whilst you're there. Just outside Tarbert so only a short drive from the harbour.
