From its front line location, the apartment commands uninterrupted views across the Firth of Clyde to the mouth of Loch Striven and the eastern Kyles.
The waterscape aspect presents the coming and going of the Caledonian Macbrayne Ferry service to and from Wemyss Bay as well as the movement of pleasure boats and sailing yachts as they venture through the famous and highly scenic Kyles of Bute. The Island also has a small fishing fleet which catches fresh produce for the community and beyond.
Rothesay town has thriving shopping, leisure and educational facilities including a larger sized Co-op. Victoria hospital provides an A&E department and a minor incidents unit. Caledonian MacBrayne operates a frequent ferry service to Wemyss Bay, which has direct rail links to Glasgow. A second ferry service runs between Rhubodach on the north of Bute to Colintraive giving access to Argyll and the West Highlands.
The two nearest airports are Glasgow and Prestwick, which are approximately 40 and 50 minutes’ drive respectively from Wemyss Bay.

Fresh water and sea fishing are available, and there are shooting and stalking opportunities. The island has its own grass airstrip for light aircraft and microlights.
