Isle of Bute & Mount Stuart House
An island on the Firth of Clyde, Bute is one of the most varied and interesting islands on the west coast. From rolling landscapes to craggy moorlands and sandy beaches, Bute is a haven for wildlife and walking. It is just a short ferry ride to the Victorian resort of Rothesay, the main town on the island. Enjoy the palm trees and promenade and sample the country’s best preserved Victorian toilets! Mount Stuart House is an outstanding Gothic mansion, built in 1716 by the 3rd Marquess of Bute. During your visit to this amazing home you will see beautiful celestial ceilings, some magnificent marble and the world’s first heated indoor swimming pool. The beautifully laid out gardens also add to the charm of the house.
Cruise Loch Lomond, Loch Awe & Inveraray
Visit the ‘Queen of the Scottish Lakes’ and explore the famous bonnie banks. Loch Lomond lies in a national park and is an area of outstanding natural beauty. There is a host of wildlife, plenty of stunning views and many activities in and around the national park. Cruise on Loch Lomond to fully appreciate the landscape and to learn about the turbulent history before travelling west towards stunning Lochawe and Inveraray. Overlooking the still waters of Loch Fyne, Inveraray is the most iconic town in Argyll. This pretty town was founded in 1745 by the 3rd Duke of Argyll, head of the infamous Clan Campbell. Inveraray is a classic example of an 18th century planned town and the Georgian architecture remains unspoilt. There is plenty to do and see in the town and a visit to the neo-Classical church and Inveraray jail are a must.
