Situation
Amberwood is located in the pretty hamlet of Shandon which lies to the west of Helensburgh (widely acknowledged for the status of its fine properties) and is one of the most desirable enclaves within the Clyde Estuary. Amberwood is located within the catchment for highly reputable primary and secondary schools and is within approximately four miles of the Lomond co-educational school within Helensburgh.

The neighbouring village of Rhu, approximately 1.7 miles from Shandon, is the home to the Royal Northern Yacht Club and offers a first class marina. Helensburgh provides two train stations with regular services to City (journey time of approximately 45 minutes), places of historic interest, broad selection of shops, health care facilities, several churches, banks, leisure centre, swimming pool, Victoria Halls(used for cultural events), parks, promenades, working pier, bars, cafes and coffee shops.

While enjoying all associated with rural living, Shandon remains within a comfortable daily commute of Glasgow city and so we consider the house will be of interest to commuters seeking a peaceful location from which they can recharge their batteries from hectic city life.

Garelochhead has good local shops and local services which adequately cater for everyday needs and requirements. Helensburgh would be the likely destination for a weekly shop and Glasgow city is about 29.1 miles distant.

Garelochhead has a train station with a service to Glasgow city centre and the north. The A817 connects Garelochhead with the A82 and provides the opportunity to commute by car to Glasgow.

Primary schooling is available in Garelochhead and secondary schooling is available at Helensburgh. Private education is provided by the highly rated Lomond School in Helensburgh as well as numerous private schools in Glasgow. Helensburgh also has state school, Hermitage Academy.

The immediate area offers much in the way of outdoor pursuits including cycling routes, challenging hill climbs, walks, many miles of forest tracks for horse riding and other outdoor pursuits. Helensburgh has an 18-hole golf course, 4.2 miles distant, and the famous Lyle Anderson course at Loch Lomond is also only 9 miles away.

For river and loch fishing, permits can be acquired locally. There are also abundant sea fishing opportunities. Locally there are commercially run shoots and excellent stalking opportunities.

Amberwood is fantastically situated for sailing opportunities. Loch Long leads into the Firth of Clyde which gives access to excellent sailing environment of the West Coast. There is a sailing club at Cove further down Loch Long as well as local marinas and boatyards at Rosneath and Rhu.

Travel Directions
From the north side of the Erskine Bridge follow the A82 to Loch Lomond and the Highlands. Continue for 11 miles on the A82 then turn left onto the A817 signposted for Garelochhead. Continue until reaching a roundabout where you take the second exit. At the next roundabout take the first exit onto the A814. Travel for 0.5 miles towards Faslane. At the next round about take the first exit heading towards Shandon. Upon entering Shandon, proceed along the coastal road before turning left off the A814 sign posted Ardchapel onto the minor road behind the A814 to find Amberwood on the left hand side.

Although Nicole was acting for the seller, we had regular contact throughout the process as she sought to ensure that the sale moved forward. It was a very stressful process for everyone involved and Nicole was fantastic in being the central co-ordination in her support...

Having been let down on a number of occasions, we decided to move to this company. Our house is on the west coast of Scotland and we are based in Norfolk, so it is very important to us that they deal with things locally. And they have. They organised the installation of a new Calor tank, replacing the roof, redecoration and many other "routine" tasks. I cannot recommend them highly enough as a company that makes things happen without nagging. They are brilliant and I would 110% recommend them to anyone looking for a letting agent. Particular mention to Rachel who is my direct contact. She is utterly, almost ruthlessly, dependable and understands that I want the best for my tenants as well as myself.

I have had the privilege of working and instructing the Robb Agency on many of my rented properties over the years. They have always proved to be extremely helpful and reliable, not just with me but also my tenants. The Agency always takes me through the lettings process in a friendly and diligent manner.

Having just moved from Wiltshire to Scotland in search of my dream rural property in the West Highlands, I was delighted to come across my current tenancy for which Robb Residential was the agent. They made the process as smooth and seamless as it could possibly have been, communicating the whole way through with updates on the property. All around genuine nice folks who seemed earnestly please about us getting into this home that we love so much. Thanks!!

Rachel kept us informed throughout the process, these things can be quite frustrating, but Rachel made it very easy. Rachel was also very cheerful and positive which makes all the difference. Jonathon who did the viewing and handover was also very helpful and cheerful.
