Situation
Lower Derbruaich is situated in an area of great natural scenic beauty in the very pleasant little settlement of Portavadie.
Portavadie Spa and Marina is only 0.8 miles away and has in recent years seen significant investment in creating a modern state of the art Marina infrastructure, with associated chandlery, restaurant, accommodation and spa facilities. The Marina is fast gaining a reputation among the sailing communities as a must go to destination and many drive to the Marina for culinary days and evenings out.
About 4.3 miles and 5.1 miles respectively to the east of Lower Derbruaich are the conjoined coastal villages of Tighnabruaich and Kames. The villages are 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 is 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.
Nearby, Ostel Bay has a stunning crescent shaped, white sandy beach and is one of the gems of Argyll’s scenic coast.
Kames has a well-stocked local provisions store and at the centre of Tighnabruaich there are further shops as well as a Doctor’s surgery and other local amenities that cater for everyday needs. A bus service runs from Tighnabruaich to both Rothesay and Dunoon.
Tarbert is 4.8 miles to the west and there is a ferry service from Portavadie direct to Tarbert.
The city of Glasgow is 62 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 of the world over sail through the scenic Kyles from the Clyde marinas and on through the Crinan canal and out to the Hebridean islands. The new marina and restaurant complex at Portavadie is 2 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 has a shinty pitch, tennis court and inevitably, a famous sailing school. The Kyles of Bute 9-hole golf course is moments from the cottage, with its magnificent views of the Kyles of Bute, Arran and Loch Fyne.
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.
