Scottish winters can be long... but that doesn't mean they can't be the best time of year!

We have availability in both November and December this year, but it will typically fill fast!

Here is why you should visit our wee seaside town this winter:

1⃣ The walking distances around the town are short so you won't have to venture too far if the weather isn’t great!
2⃣ We have loads of options for places to get cosy and enjoy great food and drink (with a view)!
3⃣ Winter walks are good for the soul, and breathing in the fresh, cool sea air will make you feel alive!
4⃣ There are great events throughout November and December, including: the Christmas lights switch-on, Helensburgh Winter Festival, and Cove & Kilcreggan Book Festival.

Our holiday apartment provides a base and location perfect to explore the paradise of the Scottish West Coast, even in Autumn and Winter!
