LOCATION

The subjects benefit from a prominent trading position on the north side of West Clyde Street (A814), which forms part of the promenade, coastal route and main traffic thoroughfare within the established Clyde Coast town of Helensburgh, which lies within Argyll & Bute.

 Helensburgh is an affluent and highly desirable town, situated close to Loch Lomond National Park, which is popular with commuters due to its proximity to Glasgow, with excellent transport links including being served by 3 railway stations.  It serves as a main shopping centre for the area and is popular with tourists and day trippers, attracted to the seaside resort and the various outdoor pursuits the area has to offer.

 Helensburgh town centre is home to a good selection of shops, offices, cafes pubs and restaurants, with a good mix of local and national operators.  Helensburgh is a popular eating and drinking destination, and nearby venues include La Barca, Padrone, Sugar Boat, JD Wetherspoons and Riverhill.
