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.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
