Description
Hillside is a delightful stone-built house under a dark grey slated roof. The architecture of the house is in typical traditional west coast highland style. The house has been very well cared for and there has been the sensitive preservation and retention of period features, ornate cornice work, ceiling roses, picture rails and restored timbers. Internally the property has undergone a full programme of improvements and modernisation and the accommodation has been reconfigured to create a light and bright flexible layout, including dormer windows, rewiring, new drainage, new heating system and new windows, all of which have been beautifully teamed with contemporary and stylish fixtures and fittings, in essence, a brand-new home within a period outer shell.
Hillside occupies beautifully stocked, gently sloping, well-tended and productive kitchen gardens and from its slightly elevated vantage point there are sublime views to the west Kyles of Bute, The Isle of Bute, Inchmarnock and south to Arran.

Council Tax
Hillside is in council tax band E and the amount payable for 2026/2027 is £3,140.38 including mains water.
Situation
Hillside is situated in the picturesque coastal village of Tighnabruaich on the west coast of Scotland. The house is located amid prominent gardens and from its slightly elevated situation there are quite spectacular and often dramatic outlooks over the famous water and landscape known as the Kyles of Bute. The views extend to Bute, south Kyles, Inchmarnock and on towards the high tops of Arran.
Tighnabruaich is a well-known sheltered anchorage with moorings that are always lively with the comings and goings of boating and yachting craft. One of its highlights must surely be the regular berthing of the famous Waverley, reputed to be the world’s last sea going paddle steamer. Always a sight to behold as she berths at Tighnabruaich pier with day trippers.
The village centre is a comfortable walk and offers a Doctor’s surgery and local amenities that cater for everyday needs. A bus service runs from Tighnabruaich to both Rothesay and Dunoon.
The city of Glasgow is 55 miles distant (via a pleasant boat crossing to Gourock) and has numerous retail districts and all the higher educational, cultural and leisure services normally associated with a major international centre.
Tighnabruaich has a reputable and award winning primary school and secondary is available at Dunoon Grammar.
The area is famous for its dramatic natural scenic beauty; yachtsmen and women the world over sail through the scenic Kyles from the Clyde marinas and on through the Crinan canal and out to the Hebridean islands. A new marina and restaurant complex at Portavadie is 4 miles to the west and offers facilities such as a leisure centre with indoor and outdoor infinity pool and beauty treatment rooms. Portavadie also hosts facilities supporting great mountain bike trails in the area.
The area offers much in the way of relaxing outdoor pursuits. Tighnabruaich Golf Club is a scenic and challenging 9-hole golf course. There is tennis and inevitably, a famous sailing school.
Sea, river and loch fishing are also available in the area, as are a number of commercially run shoots. Some of the local estates allow stalking by arrangement.
Tighnabruaich lies on “Argyll’s Secret Coast”, which stretches from Strachur at the top of Loch Fyne round the coast to Colintraive. It is an area of stunning natural beauty where there are countless opportunities to discover peaceful locations. Nearby activities include walks in forests or along the coast, fishing, kayaking or sailing and enjoying the wildlife.
