Middleton lies in an enviable and highly accessible setting on the southern fringe of Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park, enjoying panoramic views of the River Clyde.
Regarded as the area where the lowlands of Central Scotland meet the Highlands, the National Park itself is iconic, with its surrounding landscape and world famous loch forming some of Scotland’s most attractive countryside. Loch Lomond, Great Britain’s largest lake in terms of surface water, is surrounded by charming villages and offers much amenity including a range of water sports. The rolling landscape offers many opportunities for hill walkers and cyclists, whilst nearby Cameron House Hotel and Spa (8 miles) provides membership leisure facilities including a swimming pool, gym, 18 hole golf course, fine and casual dining and a marina.
Overtoun Estate marches with Middleton to the northwest and features a Scottish Baronial mansion house, tea room, gardens, picnic areas and walks. The village of Milton (1 mile), located to the south, offers a range of local amenities including a fuel station with M&S Simply Food, cafés, restaurants and a hotel.
Dumbarton, situated 3 miles to the southwest, provides a wider range of shops and professional services. In addition, a BBC Scotland studio, Dumbarton Football Club, and Dumbarton Golf Club are located in the town. It also hosts the Royal Scottish Pipe Band Championships which are held annually with over 140 bands from the UK, Sweden, Denmark, the Netherlands and Ireland.
The area has good access links to Glasgow (14 miles) and beyond. The A82 and M8 allow for an easy commute by car to the city centre. There are three railway stations close by, all on the North Clyde Line linking Helensburgh in the west to Glasgow Queen Street, and beyond to Edinburgh Waverley in the east.

Primary and secondary schooling is available in Dumbarton and there are a number of highly regarded private preparatory and secondary schools available within the Glasgow area including Lomond School and St Columbus School; Glasgow Academy, Glasgow High and Hutchesons Grammar School in the city.
