The original cornicing and high ceilings have been carefully maintained to retain the traditional feel, the entire property has been completed to designer standards throughout, with a complimenting programme of soft furnishings the combination of which makes for an inviting proposition.

Gardens
Via white painted stone piers and a white painted stone wall to concrete vehicular driveway leading to hard standing and parking area. The front gardens are to lawn and gravel with a slight gradient, stone steps lead to the front door of the property and from its elevated position, Kings Hut benefits from spectacular views across the Firth of Clyde. The rear gardens are also to a gentle gradient and are mainly to lawn.
The gardens are generous and from the extreme rear gardens there are similar expansive views to the water, the gardens are bounded by a close board timber fence and stone wall.
Situation
Kings Huts is situated just off the A815 on Victoria Road about 0.5 miles to the north of the Western Ferries Cowal terminal at Hunters Quay.
The centre of the bustling town of Dunoon is only about 2.1 miles ( around a 5 minute drive) to the south. Dunoon is the main town of the Cowal Peninsula and has a complete range of shopping, leisure and professional services.
The town has a good range of welcoming pubs and restaurants, a library, hospital, secondary school, theatre, cinema, swimming pool and leisure centre. There is a primary school in Sandbank. Some children in the area attend the independent school of St Columba’s in Kilmacolm and a private bus service is in operation from Gourock.
Located on the scenic Cowal Peninsula in Argyll, Kings Huts is only a short drive from both the Caledonian McBrayne and Western Ferries terminals from where there are frequent passenger and vehicular sailings across to Gourock. From here, the road and public transport links make it possible to commute on a daily basis to Glasgow and the central belt.
It is equally possible to drive to Glasgow via Loch Lomond which takes a little longer but is via some of the most famous and breathtaking countryside in western Scotland.
Dunoon is the gateway to the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park and can easily be described as having some of the most dramatic and picturesque scenery in the west of Scotland, it is indeed an outdoor enthusiasts playground.
As with most parts of Scotland, one is never too far from a golf course and Dunoon is no exception - the district having three challenging courses.
The expanding Holy Loch Marina is nearby with its berthing and associated chandlery services, an excellent base from which to sail and explore the world famous lower Clyde and Kyles of Bute inland sea lochs and waterways.
Sea fishing is available on the Firth of Clyde and it is possible to fish for salmon and sea trout by permit on some of the rivers and lochs of the district, the River Eachaig and the freshwater Loch Eck only a few minutes’ drive to the north.
Some of the local estates can, by arrangement, offer rough and commercial shooting as well as opportunities to stalk for roe, sika and red deer.
The area is renowned for its spectacular scenery. Benmore Botanic Garden is only five miles away and there are near endless walks, hill climbs and quiet country roads offering wonderful rambling and cycling country.
