A nice flat overlooking the Clyde with views from two floors.
A nice flat overlooking the Clyde with views from two floors. Everything you need in the flat and you are close to the Clyde Bar which is a very friendly pub and the marsala restaurant which was excellent. Very easy to get to Loch Lomond and the Trossachs. You have to park on the street but I had no problems. There are steps up to the flat but that is described in the details

Fabulous apartment and amenities for our first Scotland holiday with easy rail access to Glasgow or Western Highlands or by road to Stirling, Loch Lomond or Glen Coe and beyond. Superb location and views on the Firth of Clyde, first-class amenities in Helensburgh - and the welcome and friendliness we received ftom the local people was truly heartwarming. Looking forward to a return to North of the border.
