TAKE A BREAK! CHILLOUT AND REVIVE!
It's easy to fly RyanAir(Stanstead) to Prestwick or EasyJet (Luton) to Glasgow International and take a bus or train to the little port of Wemyss Bay (between Largs and Greenock on the A78) and the 35 minute sailing over to the completely unspoilt Isle of Bute. No caravans, retirement homes, bungalows, industry or traffic. Stay at a seashore village inn in the little yacht and fishing hamlet of Port Bannatyne, bought by a Russian family 8 years ago and now famous for freshly landed seafood, fine Imperial Russian cuisine, Real Ales straight from the cask, and Russian wines, beers and vodkas. A double room or twin room is £64 including the two substantial all-fresh Russian breakfasts!! Swim with the seals, horse-ride along empty beaches, hire a bike, wander in the woods or hills seeking out the prehistoric sites and Standing Stones, catch your own trout, pike, mackerel or sea-bass. Sounds great? It is!
