From the secluded, peaceful and private garden you overlook the picturesque Gare Loch from Clynder on the delightful Rosneath Peninsula in Argyll & Bute. It is an amazing place to relax and unwind - and all just twenty minutes from the beautiful Loch Lomond National Park.
An Caladh is situated in the lochside village of Clynder, (Gaelic for red slope, or reddish meadow, or meadow by the water) near to the historic town of Helensburgh, where there is a wide choice of shops, bars and restaurants to be found.
Also in nearby Helensburgh is the world renowned 'Hill House’ designed by Charles Rennie Macintosh where a visit is a must.
The Peninsula is rich in architecture, being once the playground for the wealthy Glasgow merchants who came to sail and shoot on the numerous estates that then existed in the area . Walkers and cyclists are amply rewarded for their efforts. Not only can they enjoy the views at leisure, they also have time to study the many fine Victorian houses and castles along the way. For the student of architecture, the area is a concentrated showcase of works of distinguished Scottish architects of the Victorian era, e.g. Alexander 'Greek' Thomson, William Leiper, John Honeyman, William Motherwell, and others.Queen Victoria's daughter Louise once had a castle built here.

No visit to Scotland would be complete without visiting Glasgow which is under an hour away by train from Helensburgh. Glasgow is a vibrant city offering the very best in history, culture, sightseeing, shopping, restaurants and nightlife.
